The cheapest 6.5x55 at my local gun shop was Federal, at $24.95 a box. The next cheapest stuff was $34.95... and I don't even want to talk about the prices on hunting rounds.
So I went online and ordered eight boxes of FMJ 139 grain Prvi Partisan from SGAmmo.com, for $12.75 a box. They're in Oklahoma, and shipping to California set me back another $12.00.
I went through four boxes of it yesterday (playing with my new toy, a 1905 M96), and it seems to be good ammo.
