I think it's an excellent round for new, young or recoil sensitive shooters/hunters, long, heavy, good penetration bullets with no recoil, however, LESS, will never be more, my old 6.5 'Swede will kick the dogshlt out of the 6.5 creed.
Spoken like someone holding on to the past. The 6.5X55 is so last century. It's old, boring, and of little value with the 'creed on the market. Folks need to just give them away while they can.
In the spirit of brotherhood, I'll take the old dated things off the hands of those who are ready to step into the modern world. Will send my FFL's address to those needing to unload them.
That POS is built on a DWM 98 Mauser with a Shilen barrel, Timney set at 1.5 lbs, sitting in a Bansner stock, pos shoots bugholes with 140gr Partitions too, what a wreck! I need to box it up ; ]
Well Gunner , I hope you learned your lesson! what were you thinkin? combining a junky old Mouser with an obsolete cartridge yield schit results, I will PM my address and take that miserable contraption off your hands.... You can thank me later...
LMAO, i'll plot a middle spot betwinxt you and sock puppet, first one there can have it.
Nope, I think we need a draw straws thing, or maybe a riddle contest to pick the winner. Just because I was doing something productive for a few minutes and missed asking for the opportunity to relieve you of such a dog of a rifle, I feel I shouldn't be left out of the field.

PS I hear "feelings" are all the rage nowadays, so I let mine be known.
