What round are yall using in 6.5CM for deer?

120g hornady

My kid shoots the 6.5 and I'll hunt with it if I am hunting certain stands. Otherwise I use my .35 whelen.

He hit one last year and dropped it right there on the plot but it was a spine shot. I'm fairly new to deer hunting (this is year 2) but I bought him a 6.5 creedmore because of the kick after doing a bit of research. We will see what he does with it this year.
