With regards to BC, keep in mind that it's all about the selection of the right bullet. For instance, the 155 gr. Lapua Scenar .308 bullets have a BC of .508, which is as good or better than most other bullet choices in the 6.5 and equivalent to the Scenar 6.5mm 120 gr bullets. The 6.5s BC is definitely superior when you go to the 140gr. bullets at ~ .600, but any BC over .450 or so is excellent for long range shooting. One of the other virtues of .30 caliber is the huge selection of bullets.
