Good article. I found this sentence very interesting as well, considering the Norma 156gr. Oryx factory load" does 2,800fps".

" Hornady’s long and heavy 160-grain InterLock round nose also works in the 6.5-284 Norma, and though it leaves my barrel at 2600 fps, it would make a great black bear bullet, especially if the distances are on the closer side of average."

In a 23.4" bl. M96 6.5x55, I run 2,540fps with the Hornady RN using IMR7828.

These are also good moose loads. Lads I worked with in Corrections bought 6.5's and ran my THEN load of 47.0gr. H450 without any problems. This load was maximum listed from my Pacific (Division of Hornady) Manual, back in the 80's, noted at 2,400fps.
