Picked up another 6.5x55 swede to add to the collection yesterday. This one is a mauser 98 action with a 24" barrel. I'm going to swap out the scope before too long as it has a tasco pronghorn scope on it now. Should be a good little deerslayer.

High Country, I measured it tonight and it looks to be a 1 in 9 twist. However I wouldn't trust my cleaning rod measuring method to be 100% accurate. Hopefully we'll see how it shoots this weekend.

I've got a small ring Mauser M98 in 6.5 X 55 Swedish, sporterized by Kimber, that shoots like a dream.

As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when. No habitat = no game.
