[QUOTE="Blackwater Red, post: 1550993, member: 10826"] My only experience with any 6.5's in recent years has been an old Mauser 98 re-barreled to 6.5x55. I worked up a good load with IMR 4831 behind a Hornady 123gr Amax bullet. Velocity on my Chrony corrected for distance was 2920 FPS. The last two whitetails harvested at my lease were at 171 and 143 yards respectively and dropped like sacks of taters. Amax is not in 6.5 now, so the ELDx 120 gr bullet should do well. [/QUOTE]
