Need info on Sherman cartridges,

[Andy Molt]

Got a rifle build in the works, going to be on a win 70 push feed mag action that I own, broughton 5c 1 in 8 twist 6.5 barrel. I am planning to have barrel length no more than 20" to be easy packing with an 8" long suppressor. I seem to recall a thread a while back where someone said a Sherman magnum out of a 20" tube was running 130gr pills at just over 3000, am I remembering wrong? I will run 127gr lrx bullets or hammers. I use both in my 6.5/284 for my son. Thanks in advance.

I have a client running 156 Bergers at 3000' from a 20" barreled 6.5 ss.
130' s would push 3150-3200'

I have a set of 6.5 Sherman dies if you go that route

I do not have enough posts to pm you, lurking too long I guess, I am interested in a 6.5 as after looking at data, what is the best way to reach you to chat, I don't type very well, rather chat on the phone. Thanks
