Forbes Model 24B 6.5x55 30mm Talleys and extras

[wilderness1]

Really nice rifle and shot 20 times with the Fusion ammo and 3/4" groups with Factory. I have $2k in this rifle and planned on shooting 130 Bergers 2900 fps which would make it a really nice long range lightweight rifle. Bedding is really nice on his one and functions perfect. Broke in perfect and ready to go.

I've hear the lead on the Forbes 6.5 is too long for any of the long range bullets. Did you ever try to reload to Bergers to just touching the lands?

[wilderness1]

Hornady oal gauge has 130 Bergers touching lands with plenty of bearing surface in neck.

I am glad I can't afford/justify this. I love 6.5x55.

Trade for .243

Daughter wants me to set her up one, let me know what you have.

[wilderness1]

Price drop $1300

 

Should shoot 1/2 easy with hand loads and make a great rifle.

Pm'd you.

[wilderness1]

Last time around. Thanks

[mfernaz]

My offer still stands on that trade offer.

[Stray Horse]
