Semi custom pre-64 270 WCF with 150 NPT's @2925
Custom '09 DWM 6.5X55MM with 140 NPT's @2751.
Dead heat tie for me, both on coolness and effectiveness.

EDIT TO ADD: I had about a 325 wt steer calf get between two juvenile bulls cuttin up and vet says he received some internal injuries and would not survive, so I had the vet put him to sleep.
Went and got my tractor w/ loader, a chain and strung the calf up and let him have it with the 6.5X55 Swede and 140 NPT's and my old 270 WCF and 150 NPT's.
I could tell very little difference in penetration between the two rounds, with the 270 making a bit more of a mess.
I just got the 6.5X55MM completed last month and of course have not had the chance to use it in the woods.
Just wanted to post this clarification to the reasoning behind my [meaningless
] opinion of these two fine cartridges.
