[QUOTE="sureshot21, post: 1404900, member: 19426"] I built a 6.5 X 55 AI ( not really an Ackely since he never did the Swede) I can comfortably and accurately push Hornady 120 grn ELD’s to 3100 and 140’s seem to plateau at 2900 no matter what. Well above standard US loading for the cartridge. But it is well known that the standard Swede can be loaded well above factory loads, and I cannot compare as I never had the rifle in the standard chamber. But I did have some 40 rounds of old Norma Ornx loads gifted to me that I used to form my initial AI cases, and they cronyed at around 2850 with a 160 grain bullet. Hot load! And factory ammo at that. I still wouldn’t change anything, I just love having somet that is not the same as everyone else’s. [/QUOTE]
