    A few notes on the 6.5 Carcano-

    The gun was designed for a bullet of about .267". .264" bullets may work well for you, they may not. Hornady makes the proper diameter bullet available from www.grafs.com but your dies may or may not handle it without binding- again, you just have to see.

    Most load manuals contain data for the 6.5, but some of this should NOT be used with the larger diameter hornady bullet. Hornady will happily provide data (which incidentally can also be used for the regular .264" bullets). I'd offer to simply give you the data (and will if you can wait awhile) but I'm at work and the load data is on my home computer- can get to it tonight or tomorrow.

    Ok, I found the file. This is a scan that hornady sent me when I inquired.

    Incidentally, I find that most of these loads are a bit conservative; I've tried the 4064 and 760 loads up to max without issue, but a lot depends on your bore diameter and they want to cover their behinds in case of a particularly tight bore.
