I used the 140 amax in my 6.5x55 and sacked plenty of deer up close, never had any issues with under penertration and that's with them being launched about 2750fps.
It is worth noting that a high BC doesn't mean it will be more accurate, but it does give you a larger margin or error when calculating long shots... Infact the most accurate load in my tikka ended up being a flat base soft point.
If I was to go back to a 6.5mm I would run the 140gr eldm for Bush and tops.
