I can remember being in Hunting and fishing in Dunedin many years ago and asked for a Sako in 6.5x55,obviously i don't remember word for word but went long the lines of "What do you want one of them for terrible caliber come look at this much better Caliber etc etc.
Needless to say i walked out empty handed
Rang Lindsay Duncan in Shooters World Gore he sold me an 85 Finn light in 6.5x55 and was happy to do it.
People can't buy them if they aren't in the shops and are steered toward other things.
I believe the Toyota Corolla is the best selling passenger car in this country if not the world, however I know far more people with 6.5x55 caliber than I do with a Corolla.
But never mind Chris, if you haven't got one then I can't buy it, my wife if she knew, would thank you for saving us 4.5k.
