Description
The 6.5×65 and its rimmed counterpart, the 6.5x65R, are powerful German hunting cartridges developed by RWS in the mid‑20th century. Known for excellent accuracy, high velocity, and the deep‑penetrating performance typical of 6.5mm bullets, both cartridges offer outstanding long‑range capability with manageable recoil. Their efficient case design delivers flat trajectory and strong terminal effect on medium to large game.
The 6.5x65R features a rimmed case for break‑action rifles, single‑shots, and combination guns, ensuring reliable extraction and dependable operation in traditional European platforms.
