   Totally agree. A thousand different people will have a thousand different views so when it gets to confusing (and it will), just do what you want to. Nothing wrong with 6.5 06 at all, and there are a...

   If you can find a tikka 260rem or 6.5creed you could rechamber like I did and it will screw into your sako75 action The performance increase is hardly eye watering but the 06 cases feel like a dream...

   Mark and Sam after work did a comparison between a 6.5 Saum and 6.5 06 AI. With the exact same powder charge and barrel the Saum produced 200 fps more velocity. So if I was changing barrels I...

   If it was me, I'd keep the 25-06, great calibre, capable of way more than 300 if you have the trigger time, plenty of projectiles that kill shit. And I would build a 6.5-06 to the specs I want for...

   To answer your question, a 6.5 barrel is a 6.5 barrel no matter what. It is what you chamber it to, eg 6.5x55 ,6.5-06 etc that makes it into what 6.5 caliber you want you want. So Buy a 6.5...

   Like others I've had a 6.5/06 and the AI version and you gain very little over the standard .260 or Creedmoor and you need a much longer barrel. My .260 with a 20" barrel will push the 143 ELDX at...

    I took my boy and the dog into a favourite spot of mine in the weekend. It's a bit of a mission to get to as the access is via an overgrown hunters track. It follows a ridge down into a nice valley...
