I would like to hear from our European friends who use the 6.5x52R. I knew that it is loaded lighter than the .25-35 here in the states, but the S&B is only getting 2032 fps from my 21" barrel. What do you use it for? I've heard it is used in combination guns, are they popular? Is the load available Europe wide? Any other information? Thanks. | ||

Dutchgus, Thanks for the reply. While the cartridge as the .25-35 Winchester seems pretty popular here in Contenders, it doesn't seem to have much of a following here in these forums. Winchester factory ammo does get about 2230 fps from my 21" barrel and one should be able to get about 2350 fps with the Hornady 117 gr. RN and Hogdon's BL-C(2) (and some other powders). I am currently obsessing over this cartridge and wanted to hear/read about any use it may have had in Europe from those who actually use it. | |||

hello. I have a combination rifle in 20 gauge and 25/35 winchester. made by Merkel, with an old Zeiss scope on it. Shoots OK, but I have only tried two loads so far. i bought it thinking it well suited to Rabbit hunting. Jamie | |||
