I picked up two boxes of Speer .263 120 grain 6.5 mm bullets for a song at the local gun shop quite a while ago. I haven't tried them yet, but at the price I figured I'd take a chance. If they don't group well, I will just use them for ringing steel and some offhand practice. I've always been curious why these bullets were originally .263 inch...was it in deference to some old rifles that were made a little tight? I don't know.
