Okay, I've got two 260 Remingtons, which should cover me pretty well in the 6.5mm range.
BUT...Swedes are even more oddball in these parts than 260s are so there would be novelty attached to owning one, I've got a Savage 110 laying around as a potential donor, and I've heard in a modern barrel/action (ie. not Mauser) you can push the Swede harder than a 260.
I'm curious to see what kind of velocities Savage 6.5x55 shooters are seeing with 120-123 and/or 139-142gr bullets.
