I recently picked up a 6.5x55 swedish. It's a parker hale 1100 toped with weaver bases and weaver tacical rings. In the rings sits a weaver 40/44 3.5-12x44 scope. I took it out to the range for the first time. It was a whopping 4 degrees celcius. I was dressed in a long sleeve t-shirt with jeans. So I wasn't exactly comfortable. I usually shoot another brand of ammo with my other rifles. However at work(I work at a wholesaler that sells Federal ammo) we only had federal power shok loaded in 6.5x55 that woudn't break the bank. So I bore sighted my rifle. My first shot at a 100 yards was an inch and a half to the right. So 6 clicks over and I was just below the bullseye. Now the I figured I may have got a little lucky. So I sentanother round down range and stacked it on top of my second shot. I did not expect much from a price point ammo and lousy atirefortheconditions.ButI was pleasantly surprised. Thank you!

1in high at 175yds = 10in low at 300yds on my Blaser. I was impressed with the consistency for a factory load at 300yds. Would have been 6 very dead stags.

Very good ammo, I have a custom rifle built in this caliber, shoots it like poison, but Federal hasn't made any in a while and I can't find it anywhere.
