I had a 6.5 A-square built this spring...
It became SAMI spec in 2002 if I recall,,, it didn't take off,,, but lots of custom rifle builders picked up the reamers...
There was a fellow on this forum a few years ago that built 6 or 7 of them,,, the only reason I did 1 was the felt recoil of this cartridge in a mid weight heavy rifle is very close to a 25/06,,, at least in my 11.9 lb built...
A 1980 Remington model 700 BDL in left hand...
25" Bob Jury Stainless Steel barrel 1:8 twist...
Trigger Tech.
Vortex 3-15x50 ERB-C reticle laminated
She's a shooter,,, its based on a fake M-40 A-1 with a semi drop down pistol grip with a beautiful factory wood stock,,, we opened up the barrel channel for the new barrel that is 1mm thicker then a factory Remington sporter barrel...
A 2.8 coutuour mid size varmit barrel,,, a bit heavy in the all day packing category,,, but its not that bad since I only hunt the foot hills along the Rocky Mountain Range...
6.5 A-Square
