Where did you get the number 6500? Did you just pick the number out of thin air, or have you thoroughly tracked calories and determined that you need that many calories to gain weight? Seems pretty high to me.
 
no i have it all measured out and that is how many calories im takin in. check it out if you would like. If its not then i miscalculated it, but im pretty sure thats what it is.
 
no what i mean is have you found out through trial and error that you need 6500 calories to gain weight? 251 pounds aint small, but 6500 calories seems like more than you would need....but if thats what you legitimately need, then i cant argue with that.

If you wanted to do a typical 40/40/20 macro breakdown using 6500 cals, that would put you at 650g protein, which is over 2.5 times your bodyweight, which IMO is too high for a natural lifter.

The way you have your carbs set up now, theyre at 65% of your total calories, which IMO is also too high seeing as youre not doing any type of endurance training (or at least havent mentioned it)...but every one is different, so i cant really say if it is too high for you specifically.
