[QUOTE="BrianID, post: 1679485, member: 104589"] I have both. I think either will work fine for what you are trying to do. 6mm will shoot slightly faster/flatter and may have slightly less recoil. Powder, brass and bullets are going to be about the same price. You are going to spend extra money for new dies if you switch to 6mm. 6.5mm will have the option of slightly heavier bullets. 6mm will have more options for varmint bullets. Is it possible that the stock and barrel alignment changed after it was threaded? If the barrel was not damaged when it was worked on, it is possible it is something else. Just a loose screw on one of my stocks caused the groups to open way up. After tightening the screw it went back 1/2 MOA. [/QUOTE]
