[QUOTE="J.J.H., post: 149507, member: 8135"] Hello,thanks for the info.I have had great results with both X-bullets,and Scirrocos pushed very fast in my Weatherbys,which is why I thought they would be a good starting point for load development in the STW.I too have experienced accelerated fouling with both these bullets.Your comment about mediocre accuracy with 6.5mm hunting bullets is something I have also heard.I was told 6.5s (particularly 140gr) dont like to be pushed fast.I realize thats a fairly general statement but is there validity to it?Are there any other controlled expansion bullets to recommend for this caliber?(Hornady SST?) Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
