[QUOTE="choprzrul, post: 2935824, member: 121411"] I bought a 16" Ruger in 6.5CM for my grandkids. Did load devlopment and found it did not like the 85gr Hammer Hunters, but it thrives on the 97gr Absolute Hammers. The following loads worked in this specific rifle, you must start low and work your way up safely. CFE223 Nosler cases Federal 210 match primers Lee factory type crimp 97gr Absolute Hammer bullets 2.645" OAL Found sticky bolt and 0.001" head growth at 46.8 grains. 45.8 grains is shooting right at 1/2" and 3114 fps average. With a 200 yard zero, that rifle should be point, click, bang, flop out to 250 yards on deer. Light rifle, light recoil for the kids. YMMV.... . [/QUOTE]
