Shodd;
Good evening to you sir, I trust this finds you well.

I appreciated you sharing your comments and experiences with the new 6.5 you're trying out.

While I had to do a wee bit of digging to recall where I'd read it, I thought we'd talked about you trying out a new 6.5 cartridge at some point in the past - and as it turns out we had. grin

For those interested, here's more reading on the subject from a couple of years back.

Anyway in the interim I've been playing with a fast twist .223 a bit and have had the .270 with the 22" slow twist/slow velocity barrel rebarreled into a 21" 6.5x55.

I'd hoped this year to play with some 120gr GMX in it, having successfully tested a 120gr TTSX on a second rack mulie buck last season, but as it stands at present I'll likely be running the Barnes again as the "to do" list exceeds the "would like to do sometime" list. wink

Thanks again sir, good luck with your rifles whichever ones come along out of the safe and all the best to you folks this summer.
