    Please advise on best 6.5 for my new build

    I am 60 also, and built a rifle off the Big Horn short Action. I shoot several calibers with it. my favorite by far is the 18 inch 6.5 Saum barrel to hunt with, and shoot to 1000 yds.

    Barnes TTSX out of 270WSM

    center point the shoulder with the ttxs and it will drop them dead, and with not near the meat damage as the Berger or a soft point. my favorite bullet is the Gmx, they hold together good, and shoot well. I do shoot a 135 Berger classic in my 6.5 Saum.

    Barrel tuners?

    look at the EC tuner by Eric Cortina, works great have not had a group move period. My 6.5 saum shoots very good but I was getting about .440 out of it. I tried seating depth, and about everything I could. The tuner with the same load work up shoots .250 or less.
