Barnes gives load data to 51k PSI as per SAAMI, Vihtavuori lists modern Data for 6.5x55 SKAN/ SE for 380 KPA which is about the 55.000 PSI that you are looking for. Slow powders is what you want RL 26/Magnum/ MRP or N550/555/560.

you are aware that GSC in SA shut down in 2019 and in the US in 2020? the SA business part was signed over to the brothers Landmann and may still exist

incorrect, anything S is the later bore size of .323, no S= .318 rimmed versions of either are 8 mm IR or IRS, non rimmed ( much more common) 8 mm I or IS

This is exactly why I had a fixed 6X Leupold on my toss-in the canoe gun. Less parts to fail.

8x57 day: 130 gr OK+ at 3150 fps then 160 gr TTSX at 2920 fps Woodleigh 220gr RN at 2450 fps

I have 100 rounds of ADG in 300 PRC ( to make into 9.3 wildcat), I know it's been written that it's thicker walled but at the same trim length it actually is 10 gr lighter than Hornady brass. Just wondering where the material would come from to make the wall thicker

I think it was BCTAL, he is in Canada

Hodgon loads with CFE223 get you 2920 fps with 48kCUP, so this could be around 55kCUP, which is not bad for a modern rifle. But it is beyond CIP/SAAMI.

looks like it is not IRS ( 323 bore) but IR/318, so you should be good. Hard to get ammo outside Germany!

Yuck, no terns in Wurst!

I saw the rifle when it was for sale in a gunshop in Calgary, 5 or s years ago, if that was the same gun. it had beautiful wood and I was very close to replacing my CZ550 with it. It tugs on my heart that the gun will now likely go south.

they make pretty good stuff. My plan b is that I have a EU mailing address and they can ship there from Sweden.

Same thing here, I had a wish list for North Forks, they have just cancelled it as they did not receive any delivery for 1.5 years. Could you comment on whether you will resume supplying hunters in Canada in the new future?
