Hi: Does anyone use 120 grain or 140 grain A-max bullets in their 6.5 mm. cartridges. If so what were your velocities & results. I"m loading 6.5x55 mm. Swede cartridges. Thanks, Phil

Hi, Mike,

I use Hornady 140 A-Max bullets for Rams with my .260 Rem barrelled Tikka White Tail Hunter rifle.
Muzzle velocity is 2650 fps. To date, I have yet to loose a ram hit with these bullets. I think they are a little heavier constructed than all the others.

Regards,

Joaquin
