If you use the SEARCH FUNCTION and insert 6.5 x45 the first thread up is 6.5x45 for prairie dog hunting. At the bottem of that thread is listed several resources to open up for 6.5x45 information. I had a friend, since deceased, who built a varmint rifle in this caliber. I took him along to a club 200 yd benxh match. Some good shooters including one who is close to entering the IBS Hall of Fame. Most gave him a sideways look when they saw his rifle. He won the match. Very accurate round, good luck.
