[QUOTE="jb1023, post: 1235073, member: 91995"] bigngreen, Just read that you are the smith that Elkaholic uses for some of his work. I'm now intrigued by the 6.5/7 Sherman but that is for another thread. Anyway I had a question that I am hoping you might be willing to assist with. I have moved on from the 7mm-08 and am now thinking the 6.5x55 for this build. One of the Sherman loadings could sway me but I think with my skill level I should go with a standard loading first and perhaps do a Sherman in a few years. If I go with the 6.5x55 is there anything you can recommend in terms of twist or length or anything else for that matter? BnG/Sable, Have either of you any experience with Mark Chanlynn @ Rocky Mtn Rifle Works or his barrels? He has a good rep on another site and was very helpful on the phone but online info is limited.
