I know people talk about increased carcass damage, but I want my deer to drop everytime and even a marginal shot (yes, I'm sure we all produce them from time to time) now does so much damage that they seem to go over very quickly.
Does anyone else shooting this calibre have any thoughts on the best commercially available fodder for the 6.5x55 Swedish? Maybe stats from other calibres would be useful too.
There's a lot of information available from the States, but they all seem to shoot at longer range than we Brits (well me anyway - 100 yards or less). They often seem to be well out past 200 yards; sometimes over 300 yards, they say. Pretty impressive to put a bullet into a 4" circle at that range. It's good to know that this round it THAT capable.
