You ought to be able to get a muzzle velocity of about 2900 fps with 140/143 grain bullets with that 6.5 Rem…….depending on what it likes to eat. Anywhere close to that is fine. It’s more about accuracy than speed. In my opinion, accuracy is paramount.

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.

Every man needs to know his limits.
