Spot-on Ripp!
Right now, the 6.5's sit in the locker while I am HOT to trot to kill something with my 1936, Model 70 .30/06.
Just found loads putting 200gr. Nosler Partitions and 180gr. SST's in the same small group, 3" high at 100 with 165gr. SST's hitting 1 1/4" left at the same elevation.
That makes the zeros with these at 210yards, 240yards and 265yards.
Maybe the 6.5x55 next year! With that ladder rear sight and the 140 Sierras, I expect to easily smack the 1,000 meter steel buffalo.
I've never had a 6.5x55...pretty excited to give it a try..AND, they have had the rifle in their gun shop for a long time..so getting a pretty good deal on it...
