I think it might sell to a few, it has had a following fan base for a long time, since perhaps the 256 Newton IIRC, the 25-06 Neidner has done well.

I was thinking the very round Might just be something Ruger might do, they are treading new waters pushing the 6.5C for it's short action, heck, if you want to run a 26" bolt, you might just run a 24-25" 6.5-06.

I think if standardized/Saami'd it would be a good round. MY experience has only been knowing a gent who owned a wildcat long ago, by a reputable smith. The owner got me started into handloaded, and he had some serious pressure issues in it and sold it. I believe he needed to get handle on neck turning brass- something he never did to his brass.

I believe the smith was Womack, on a '98, he said it was a very accurate rifle.

The 6.5 x 64 Brenneke has created some interest.
