The Miroku Low Walls have been made in .243 and ,260 Rem for a number of years, and the 6.5x55 is the same case head size, so I would think any reasonable load is fine for the action (with modern steel)

I still wish they make one in .30-30, with the exact same configuration. It's possible the .308 bore is a hair too big for that barrel contour. I tried to get both C Sharps and Ballard to make a Low Wall .30-30, and neither were interested.

In any case, I just grabbed a 6.5x55 off GB. The wood is not as nice as pictured above, but it's good. smile
