Hopefully that was of interest to you or someone out there this afternoon sir.

Dwayne, this thread has indeed been very interesting to me. Matters such as these I do find truly fascinating.
I have been considering a 6.5 sweede for quite some time now and I do think I'll end up with one at some point.
Lately however I have jumped on the 270 bandwagon and it did get me thinking I may be able to duplicate the results you are getting if I build a 270 with perhaps a 8 or 9 twist with a barrel of appropriate grove depth.
While it may perform well I do fear that perhaps the 6.5 bore diameter may be just about perfectly suited to further facilitate the results you have been seeing with the 6.5.
I to suspect that the barns bullet in the 6.5 may be softer than the Barnes in the 270.
Whatever the case it fascinates me.
Thanks for posting
