[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 896363, member: 25383"] you want 2900fps from a 6.5 bore cartridge using a 140 grain bullet. The .257AI necked to 6.5 is your answer. It easy to do, and cases can be formed from 6mm, .257 Roberts or simply 6.5x57 brass. Kiff sells the reamer ground to headspace off of .257 brass necked up to 6.5 caliber. The round is capable of close to 3000fps. Of course the 6.5x55AI is just 150fps slower with the same bullet. gary [/QUOTE]
