yeah that was mine... being a gun botherer I only sold it to get a Blaser... never would have othertwise... it was superb..
nowt much tween 6.5x47, 260 Rem, 6.5x55, 6.5 Creedmore..., if you have one you don't need another
the 47 gets a little more pressure because of case construction (small primer) which almost makes up the difference on the larger capacity rounds.
I went to 6.5x55 in the Blaser, which works just as well...
the 47 is probably the best choice overall in a conventional bolt action... short action, excellent feeding, small primer and more COAL to work with for long pills.. brass is cheaper now, but only available in Lapua
now that Blaser are making the 47 barrels I would have done that, but having the 55 makes it unnecessary..
