6.5 swede were invented within a year of one another, with the 6.5 swede clearly - objectively - a ridiculously higher performing cartridge,
Yet its still wildly popular across the pond. Almost bought a Fieldcraft in 6.5 swede. Still kicking myself for not jumping on one i saw on sale. I have a old Ljungman in great shape i dont shoot and ammo to go with it. So i wanted a nice light 6.5 Swede rifle.
Now i think i will just get a Grendel in a mini action and save a ton of cash. The lighter bullets are fine for deer within the ranges im capable of shooting in the field.
