It seems like a lot of you are happy to shoot the more accurate loads, even if it means lower velocity. My old 1894 6.5x55 Mauser seems to shoot the slower, older loads very well, and I have not shot the hotter new European stuff in it.

I think it will be 120s, 125 Nosler BT, and 129 grainers for my handloading on both the Mauser and the Ruger.
