In the Feb. 1991 issue of GUNS & AMMO. Ross was the shooting editor at the time and did an article entitled; " 6.5 It Does It All" and according to Ross, "There are no better medium bore cartridges than the dynamic duo of the 6.6x54mm Mannlicher and 6.5x55mm Swedish Mauser". He was hunting in Alaska with a Model 1903 Mannlicher-Schonauer in 6.5x54 and also helping his friend Tom Rigden build a new hunting camp in return for some hunting opportunities. It's a good article and he covers both the 6.5x54 and 6.5x55 quite well. That was the article that sparked my interest in the 6.5x55 and I knew I had a copy of that issue around here. Didn't get a chance to dig it out until tonight. Sure seems like the article you mentioned.
