6.5 Sauer.
« on: January 30, 2013, 12:15:28 AM »
One of my drillings has the rifle barrel chambered for the 6.5 Sauer. After retiring & moving back to Florida. We began working on getting the house fixed up like we want it. My next project is to cut a few cypress trees and get a neighbor to saw them into planks to floor part of my barn for a shop & loading area.
Then I'll start playing with the 6.5 Sauer. I believe I'll start with 120 gr bullets. Has anyone ever loaded for this caliber?

Regards,

That's one long skinny case. Should be fun to experiment with.  8)
