[QUOTE="jbronner13, post: 2624747, member: 123550"] I have also wanted to do a similar build on a pre64 Model 70 platform with a 24 inch barrel and either a 1-7.5 or a 1-8 twist and load it up with 160 grain bullets. There are so many cartridges out there that have disappeared simply because they weren’t marketed well or the right twist wasn’t used (the 350 REM Mag comes to mind as being handicapped more by barrel length and ****** marketing). I hate seeing all these new cartridges, we just need to use the old ones better. I would love to see manufacturers start loading the 6.5x55 Swede to higher pressures for modern rifles, it would easily compete with the 6.5 PRC. [/QUOTE]
