6.5 x 55

  1. For Sale: Sako 85 6.5x55

    Looking to sell my Sako 85 in 6.5x55, the gun has been a joy to use but I bought a kipplauf and I use that for everything now so it’s seems a shame to leave it stuck in my safe. I don’t feel like I need to sell anyone on the old swede as the fact it’s still going strong after nigh on 130 years...

  3. 6.5x55 V160 loading data

    Well after my last post I've just picked up a 6.5x55 and about to load... "Lead Free" So another minefield of data to wade through! I'm shooting 85gr through my 243 and 150gr through my 30.06, so am trying to split the difference. What are people's experience with 120gr with V160 in 6.5x55? Or...

  8. Should a novice choose a flatter shooting calibre for their one and only rifle???

    Once again I'm looking to learn from the collective wisdom of SD members, please help? I have been looking at the 6.5x55 SWE as an all round calibre (will probably only ever have one stalking rifle) and know this is a bit of a hot potato on SD forum and it is often a lively debate that follows...
  9. 6.5 x 55 comparison

    Please forgive my ignorance. I have recently taken up stalking and I love it but I'm not really that interested in rifles. I just want one that feel well built and will put the bullets where I want them (so far as my ability allows). I've been advised to go for a 6.5 x 55 and so I'm looking at...
  10. 7x57 v. 6.5 x 55 v 25-06
