[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 2148748, member: 107384"] There is just 1 6.5-06 caliber. There is the 6.5-06 A Square which is SAAMI standardized and IIRC a tad different from the original. The common "varieties" are the Ackley Improved versions with either a 35 or 40 degree shoulder. One of the older standard loading manuals has reloading data for it. Highly likely that you have a 9 twist as that was the standard for years. plenty of load data out there if you "Google" for it. Also you could use .270 or possibly .25-06 data as a guide. Start a few percent low and work up from there. If you have a friend with QuickLoad" there are lots of possibilities limited only whatever powder you have on hand or could get. [/QUOTE]
