[QUOTE="JeepGeneral, post: 1255747, member: 99037"] Thank you for responding. I'm well aware of the ballistic differences of the two calibers however my reason for the change is more practical. The majority of the guys I hunt with shoot 6.5x284 so I already have a pile of brass, bullets and load data at my disposal. A few years ago the airline lost my bag while on my way to NWT. My rifle made it but my ammo did not. Sharing ammo with my hunting buddies would have got me out of that jam. I doubt you can find 6.5x55 factory loads in Yellowknife! [/QUOTE]
