Hornady 6.5 160 rn

They no longer make this bullet and it's very accurate in my 94 Swede. Which bullet did you Swede shooters go to as a replacement ? Barlow
 
Barlow,
Not sure if this will help you. I know Sierra used to have a 160 RN as well. I used them in a 6.5x284 to shoot a bison once. they were accuracy as the 140 sierra SBT. I was running them at slower speeds as well, actually probably more like swede speeds. Not sure if this helps you or not, or even if Sierra still makes them. I think Norma still makes the heavy bullets still. In my 6.5x55's, I am now using the Sierra 130hpbt gamekings. they shoot very well in both of mine so far. I haven't played much with loads yet, but all loads so far were under an inch, some closer to 1/2".
