It will sell. 6.5 is where its at, and for me to say that one has just to look at my name.
Years ago, when I first got into hunting, I had a picture showing the entire line of ammo from the old Canadian firm called "Imperial". One bullet caught my eye, it was the 6.5x55 loaded with a 160gr round nose that was, it seemed, as long as the case.
Always wanted to have a 6.5 just to load the Hornady 160gr round nose that is now discontinued just as I received a 260 rem.snooze you loose I guess. Woodleigh is making a 160gr round nose now so I guess I could use it.
I did manage to load up some 264WM for a buddy and those 160's dumped moose,grizz, B.bears and caribou real well.
I do not know if the new Nosler rifle would stabilize 160gr round nose bullets but if I were to get one I would try out the woodleighs just for the hell of it.
If they go with an 8 twist, it will.
My 6.5x55 Shilen/98 FN does well with 160 Woodies, much better with 155 Lapua Megas.
