Burleyboy Campfire Outfitter B Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,069 Likes: 9 Idaho	Originally Posted by gunner500 Man you guys are causing me to want to build a long action 8 twist 26 inch barreled 7x57mm, 180 Horns at 2800 would be pretty cool from the old Warhorse, i like taking the little engines that could and see what they can do, my 6.5x55 Swede with 147 Horns at 2950 is a middleweight that punches like a light heavyweight, just shot a skunk with the damn thing at 502 yards Sat. morning! What is your 6.5x55 load? I've got a stainless fluted tikka in the swede. I started working up a load for the 147 for it a few years ago but never got it quite shooting like I wanted. I was running RL26 and took it up to about 2900fps but groups were just over moa. I need to get back out and try it again. I only shot a few different loads. I've recently taken the 180 to over 2500fps from an 18.5" 7-08. I had it shooting some great groups but the light fieldcraft keeps toasting scopes. Bb
