With what you have already, I would look for a 6.5x55.

go with either the 25WSSM or .257 Roberts
i would go with the roberts first because it can acheive velocities up to 5000 fps if handloaded correctly, also these are tack drives and all have pletny of velocity and energy

Don't forget the .260 rem. Can't go wrong with the 243, 25-06, 6.5x55.
