6.5x47 Lapua

Yotedog,
Whats the twist on your 6.5mm barrel? I'm having a 6.5mm X 55 being built. Its is similar to a friend's build with a
1-8 Twist, but different action. But his is EXTREMELY accurate and he's loading 140 - 142 Berger VLD's being pushed by 44.4 Gr of VVN150 & VVN160.
 
I shot the 6-6.5 x 47 Lapua and i will again . The 6.5 necked down to 6mm was an excellent chambering for long range 6mm. 1 in 8 throated for the 103-08's . I shot H4350,fed 205m's and i played with the seating .005 or so. Close to the Ackey speed and i would think maybe longer barrel life.
