    Any way to get these to Alberta, Canada? I’d love to run them in my new 26 Nosler!

    6.5 Gibbs vs 6.5-06 AI vs 6.5 Sherman vs 6.5 SLR

    I'm not sure what's going to be my next move, the action is a new sako 85 M action so I'm not sure how I'd go about lengthening the mag box. From what a smith told me, I might be stuck going the 6.5-06 ackley route because it's the shortest of the 6.5 variations of the 06 case. Anyone have a...

    6.5 Gibbs vs 6.5-06 AI vs 6.5 Sherman vs 6.5 SLR

    I'm looking to do a new 6.5 build which I was kinda set on a Gibbs but after talking to a bunch of smiths and barrel makers I'm not so sure now. Looking for input from the fellas that know! The gun is going to be my mountain gun, so I'm looking for speed to power the 127 LRX along.

    6.5 Gibbs Build

    Just getting things ready to start my 6.5 build, and was wondering if anyone knows if a 6.5 Gibbs will work with a sako 85 M action. Now I know it'll work with a 270, or 30-06 but is the mag box long enough for a 6.5 Gibbs? Thanks in advance for the info!!
