BUY ONE!!!
T3 apparently is being replaced by T3x. The 6.5 is a Niche caliber not always available. I do plan to get one or the other Tikka some day.
Lipseye's claims to have the Ruger No 1 in 6.5x55 now. Now its the 2015 RSI version, a few years ago it was the No1A version in that caliber.
Rem M700 classic for 1994 was 6.5x55, Winch made some M70 FWT in 6.5x55, both push feed (got my first deer with that one) and later a CRF M70 in that caliber, but its not currently in their line up.
I think the CZ550 is also available in 6.5x55. The FS might be cool!
One problem with the 6.5x55 is midway just sent out an email stating that Winchester and Remington have "discontinued" brass for reloading. It had been out of stock for years anyway. Prvi brass from Graf's is good stuff priced fair. Norma brass is better but priced like new ammo, I think Hornady and Nosler may have expensive 6.5 brass too.
I also have sortuva "old country" connection with that caliber, so its one of my favorites.
Shoot good.
