Re: 6.5mm Creedmoor vs 6.5x55mm

Photo Bucket (of shit)...hehehe

That's awesome.

Whats even more awesome is that you did that with a load just 3 grains over the max for a 250 Savage with a 100gr, which regardless of what everyone says seems to be the base case for that round.

I put together a 6.5x55 on a Yugo action with an E.R. Shaw barrel about 25 years ago to shoot woodchucks. Just shot the 140MK over 36.5 to 37.5 gr (moly) of AA4350 with velocities between 2650 and 2750. Still shoot the gun and it still groups between .3 and .6 depending on the day never fired it past 500yds but the MK followed the tables nicely.
Still impressed on how good a job Shaw did on the barrel. Took it off once to see if I could improve on their job but all of the work was spot on.

Cheers,

Tom
