6.5x55 Swedish -- old vs. new

[USSR]

Woah, that's an awesome looking rifle. What load do you shoot for the best 1000 yd. accuracy?

Current load is:

Lapua brass
142SMK bullet
Russian primer
47.1gr VihtaVouri N160
Velocity 2925fps

1,000 yards is about 25MOA above a 100 yard zero with this load. Enjoyed shooting it last year, but seeing this year is the 100th Anniversary of the .30-06, will be shooting the '06 this summer.
