I have a smile on my face. Too bad Cal Sibley isn't still with us. You would have a 2 page dissertation on the 6,5x55 rounds and the rifles.

He really liked V-V 160 with 140's and was working on V-V 560 when he passed.

In all my dealings with him I never heard one contentious word come from him. He was a true gentleman.

My Swede, I call her "Swedeheart" still likes 47,5grs of RL-19 and 120>129 gr bullets. That covers a great percentage of what I hunt.

When I got her the barrel was pretty well shot out, so I used her for awhile as was and then i purchased a barrel from Sarco. It's no Kreiger but she shoots better than I do. She wears a Sightron 6x24 40 Mildot Scope. still got her Iron sights also and when I want to show off I shoot with them.

I still Miss Cal.

Best wishes, Bill
