not exactly what your asking, but one of the guys I hunt with has a sporterized 6.5mm swedish mauser
he has used it on several elk hunts and countless deer hunts with very good results
hes used the speer 140 grain bullet almost exclusively and hes had good results

a sporterized Swedish Mauser could be made into a very accurate,
and fairly light weight and low recoil hunting rifle are a very low price.

6.5x55 Swedish Mauser Review - Shooting Times

It's not much of a stretch to make a case for the 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser being the best 6.5mm cartridge of them all.
