Let's face it, there's no such thing as milsurp 6.5C. I'm now testing M14 rifle builds in 6.5C which means I need a supply of 6.5 ammo.

I have the dies and primers. I most likely have the powder, but can anyone recommend a cheap bullet that I can use to at least dial in the scope to get on paper, then switch to good ammo for accuracy testing?

Even if I can't find bullets, I can probably horse-trade some 30cal bullets one for one.

Tony.

I don't think you have many options to compare in these times, you should jump on what's available and make it work for your needs..

Benny - I have several partial boxes of various 6.5 bullets that I bought when I was doing initial load development for my 6.5CM bolt gun, that I won't be using. 120gr, 130gr, Berger, Lapua, Sierra. I settled on the Berger 140gr and I have a full 500rd box of Sierra 142's that I won't be using also. You're welcome to any or all of them.
