[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 108057, member: 2852"] Yes it is a 6.5 WSM with no changes. We were going to chrono it with my Oehler 35 the day of the match but we ran out of time. I figured it was a bit exagerrated though too until I was put in charge of running the Exbal program for his rifle on my IPAQ and his trajectory matched dead on for 3450. If it was going slower, we would have had to bring the scope up more but it was not needed. As far as pressures go, they were leaving ejector marks quite regularly but not bad. We were shooting in 85 degree weather in the middle of the Utah sandstone desert and his load was tuned for Evanston Wyoming where there is still snow on the ground and 20 degree windchills! It does have slightly less capacity than a 264 but it is a fatter powder column with sharper shoulder. Efficiency and individuality of barrel come in to play on this one I believe. [/QUOTE]
