Default RE: 6.5 Rem mag

There is a85 grain bullet listed in the Lee manual for the 6.5. The 6MM Remington is a real flat shooter. However all things considered, it hard to beat the 22-250 for pure varmit shooting. Its hard to keep up with ballistics with all the new bullets and powders comming out but get a good ballistics chart and its hard to beat the 22-250 for cost to operate, components, brass and it has pretty good barrel life. Spend a few buck more and have it reamed to 22-250 AI. You now have about as best as it gets
