6.5x55

What are you looking for? Load data? Hodgdon has reloading data online for their powders (Winchester, IMR and Hodgdon powders). That can be found here. Since you make no mention of a specific bullet or powder the link should be a good start. The 6.5 X 55 or commonly called the 6.5 Swede is a pretty popular cartridge.

Here's my two cents worth for the 6.5 Swede but is not what you looking for, just an interesting topic. I reload numerous calibers with cast bullets and Trail Boss powder. All works fine until coming to the Swede. Using a max load of TB, the rifle will not stabilize even the lightest cast bullet available, let alone anything approaching a 160 gr. However using the same powder charge of TB, the rifle stabilizes any jacketed weight bullet you throw at it.
 
6.5x55 WHAT rifle? M94, M96, M38, AG42B, commercial??????

I load for M96 and AG42B.

What is it that you want to know? Lots of folks here load for the Swede.
 
SHR970-gould use any tips loading for the AG42B, such as powder/bullet. Have had one sitting around for almost 20 years, never shot it yet. Have loaded for 6.5x55 bolts, but use rl-22, which is likely to slow for the semi?

Thanks
