His conduct of the AR test was pretty dodgy. Why wouldn't you just use something like a lead sled/ formed bench rest, then all you have to do is action the weapon and pull a string-instead of praying that your safety spectacles protect you when the barrel bursts

Reason why factory 6.5x55 ammo is so weak from what I understand is because of the krag actions they were weaker than the M96 so ammo was downloaded in pressure to stop the krags from stuffing out, Stiga arms used to use the M96 action to build sporting rifles in 270, 30-06, 308 etc
