[QUOTE="jimsbriar, post: 836609, member: 50666"] thanks 6.5x300. yup I want to set this up to be a 500-600 yard hunting rifle. One of the issues I am fighting, is that sako reams out their throats more in the 6.5x55 too accommodate the larger round nose 160 gr bullets. so, if your gun likes the bullets seating up against the lands, it leaves you with very little bearing surface contact inside the neck. I am worried that if I drop one of these cartridges or just through the process of loading and unloading the gun at the end of a day of hunting, that I may inadvertently loosen the bullet from the case....
