Just for my two cents...
I've used everything from plain Jane Core Loct slugs to A-Max etc. It seems to me that if you're using the same slug in each cartridge, the 6.5x55 should do less tissue dammage. That is considering the only difference would be the velocity. A 129gr in a Swede shouldn't do as much damage as a 130gr in a .270. Now that's just me guessing as I've never shot game with a 6.5x55 Swede, just a .270....that however is fixin' to change in a few days.......Now who wants to forge my bolt and cut the barrel back to 21"???
