Great thread!
ive not personally used a 6.5x55 but i have a storie of one.
it was one of those mauser 96? i rekon from memory?? synthetic stock, fairly heavy, my mates gun when we were starting out, now the fella gets buck fever real good and for a while he had been sayin ' how crap it was, cant hit anything' lol,
i was stalking behind him an witnessed buck fever and that barrel shaking all over the hillside to understand what the heck was wrong with the rifle...
on this particular day he did get a old fallow buck with wonky antlers... a head he still has.
We thought the 6.5x55 was a Canon of sorts ha ha
it got upgraded to the Savage edge 308 an never looked back..
