Where do you get these, but in 6.5mm? I've e-mailed Paul with Wildcat bullets and he said they are not making them now. Where can I get a higher BC bullet than the Matchking 142s, hopefully in ULD design? Anyone know?
Good week, a bit of rifle porn....

I have tried to find info on the net and came up empty handed. Any information would be great.

I think JLK makes a higher BC 6.5mm bullet but I have not used them. Berger makes their 140 gr VLD with a BC in the .66 range but it will not survive anything over 3200 fps in most cases with fine accuracy, especially if the barrel has a bit of wear on it.
I like the 142 gr SMK in my larger wildcats, it will take anything I can throw it out at including +3550 fps and for the effective range of a 6.5mm chambering, its got more then enough ballistic performance and integrity and consistancy to get the job done.

liltank,
You can order VLD's from Bob Cauterucio (1-650-583-1550). He makes a 141 gr. (BC .630), 147 gr. and 155 gr. I don't know what the BC values are for the heavier two but they are both special order bullets. I have not used them, don't have anything in 6.5mm.
