[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1826474, member: 101755"] I have two 6.5-06; 1. Colombian Mauser action 26" SS E.R. Shaw barrel for my Colombian wife. Pretty tricky of me :) ...don't you think...lol. The action was made to shoot the 30-06 cartridge orginally. They were made in 1957 and the one I have, had never been built out! 2. Built by myself on a Savage Axis action. Criterion SS 26" varmint barrel. I used the Axis action because the design is the same as a Savage target action. So I felt they are stronger/stiffer than the 110, 111 or the 116. Yeah, they are kind of odd on their data... 25-06 50gr - max 6.5-06 49gr - max 270 56gr - max 280 52gr - max with 160gr bullets So judging from that I would feel the 6.5-06 should be around 52 to 53 grains of Hybrid 100V...but that would push it up close to 3200fps...at 50.1 I'm at 2980fps. I'm going to slowly walk my way up to 51gr of the H100V...might go a bit more if I still have not reached any pressure signs. 50.1 is coming out of a good noid though, so I'm not sure I can make it to the next noid.
