I may ask my wife if she always wanted a rifle to take to the range, do load development for etc, and when she says NO, I'll send off my check for one of these rigs for her. And then I'll borrow it.

The 20 inch barrel would be fine by me. The 17-18 in barreled cavalry carbines were what thrilled me about the Swede in the first place.

My first Swede had a 20" barrel. Never had any trouble killing stuff with it.

Well if I was in the market for a 6.5 x 55, I have a sako. I would buy the ruger, to a bedding and trigger job, mount a good 4x or 6 x fixed power on it, zero it in and go shoot stuff. While I like 24 inch barrels on my guns, I would live with a 20. In fact It would take maybe two or three shots to get over it.
