RE: 6.5x55 Who owns one ?
I've got one in a Mauser, I've been loaning it to a buddy for the last two years, hunted it one season before that, I took three deer, he's taken 9 or 10, plus countless coyotes and other small game. Really heavy, but an AWESOME shooter.
They don't call it the "European .30-06" for nothing!!!!
