Lapua Mega?
I was thinking of trying some of the Lapua Mega (155gr) factory ammo in my 6.5x55 for deer huting this fall. My big question is whether anyone has experience with this bullet? I'm a little concerned that it might be too stoutly constructed (not open up fast enough) for deer. While I know I could could go with a lighter bullet, I'd like to stay in the 140-160 grain range out of principle- if I want a 120 grain bullet I'll just use my .257 Roberts!
