[QUOTE="CVCOBRA1, post: 1683470, member: 83906"] No body has mentioned the Grand Daddy of the 6.5's, the .256 Newton. In 1913 Charles Newton along with the Western Cartridge Company necked down the 30-06 to 264. Did change the taper and shoulder a little but was way ahead in the 6.5 game. Newton went bankrupt and the cartridge was dead by 1938. No slow burning powders back then, death to another one. The first USA 6.5........ [/QUOTE]
