    Depends on the brand of ammo. Some of the European brands of ammo load their 6.5x55 for modern rifles as it is a popular cartridge there. American stuff tends to be loaded lighter as they dont use the modern rifles in that calibre and most of the 6.5s there are older. But I would also agree that reloading allows for more out of this calibre but that is no different from almost every other calibre.
