Anybody know of a manufacturer other than Blaser? I already have one of those.

Sako/Tikka,I know they make one.

CZ,Might make one.

If Savage doesn't offer the caliber,you can buy a 6.5x55 aftermarket barrel,and make one yourself using a LH Savage action.

Cooper makes one,if you have deep pockets.

If there are any left, Lipsey's was offering a #1 A ruger, chambered for 6.5 x 55mm.

Thanks. I thought about both of those options, too. Think I'll give Savage a call.

Lipsey's has the No1 listed. Anybody have one of those in 6.5 Swede?

I don't want to diminsh this forum, because the firing line has great people and I always learn and have fun here. However, you may want to visit the rugerforum.com. They havea few older threads in the rifle section on the Lipsey's 1 A in 6.5 x 55mm. All the owners raved (positively) about the rifle.
