How is the Sellior and Bellot hunting ammo?

I am reading it is loaded quite a bit hotter then the rest.

Factory sporters in 6.5x55mm...

X4 Get the Tikka T3 in 6.5x55.

I've had a Rem 700 Classic and a Ruger 77 MkII in 6.5x55mm. Nice rifles.

Currently, have a Win 70 Fwt [blued/wood] and a Tikka 695 [stainless/synthetic] in 6.5x55mm.

I think the T3 would be a good choice in it [if you couldn't find one of the older 695 series].

So here she is. Carl Gustav Swedish Mauser in 6.5x55 with a Leupold VXII 2-7x33. All in with Leupold bases and mounts, as well as a sling I paid $525 to my door! Chopped barrel with a target crown, and new front sight were just a couple added touches.

What do ya think? Did I do alright?

Yep, you did alright. Great looking gun in an awesome chambering. Winning!

If it shoots well, I think you got a great deal.

 

[regulate34]

looks awsome. now go out and shoot it.

 

[mlehtovaara]

Cleaned it up and the bore is nice and shiny!

Should be a shooter, with the taret crown.

Probably get out tomorrow morning, or Saturday.

I will post a range report.

Thanks for all the help guys.

Looks very, very nice.

I think you did very well on it, all considered.

If it prints pretty targets then it upgrades to an excellent deal.
