This probably has been discussed, but I tried searching for 6.5-06 and 6.5mm-06 and found nothing.

I like my 6.5x55 rifles a lot. How much of a velocity increase can we reasonably expect from a 6.5-06, or the AI version? My Swedes all have 22-inch barrels, but if I have a 6.5-06 made for long range shooting, I would opt for something longer, like maybe 26 inches.
