We have steel targets, but for fun, we use 20 oz soda bottles filled with water at 500 and gallon milk jugs with water at 1k. Both are easy to clean up. Both can be humbling experiences. Pecos

Gentlemen, I would like to pick your collective brains and see what ya'll recommend for loads for the 6.5-06AI. I notice from reading about 1000k matches the folks who are using 6.5 cal all seem to like RL22. My rifle is a mod 70, with a 26 inch Shilen SS select match barrel 1-8 twist. So...
