Carcano 6.5 Ammo Review and Test 2020

Check this out fellow milsurp collectors and enthusiasts. The unpopular World War era Carcano rifles and Carbines fire the 6.5 x 52mm. We tested multiple ammo manufacturers to test reliability and accuracy. In this video, we discuss the top three choices for 6.5 Carcano ammunition.

Update: PPU's New 6.5 bullets measure at 267, which is correct for Carcanos

04/06/2021 Update: Due to ammo shortages, it is extremely hard to attain 6.5 Carcano. Hornady has stopped producing the 6.5 Carcano Bullet so many reloaders have stopped producing ammo
The Koba49 has currently stopped producing ammo due to no more hornady bullets, high prices, and the ammo shortage
Stienel Ammo is producing cast loads but they are backlogged 6-8 months
PPU and Norma are the main producers as of recent, but it may be hard to find that ammo

Runner ups due to price and feeding issues:
Hornady
Norma
Comment if you've had no issues with these ammo types or know of any manufacturer that we did not mention.
