In both of the calibers you mention, the rifles I have are 03A3's in '06 and a 96 Mauser in 6.5 Swede. As such I keep things in the middle ground with my handloads.
For the '06s, the Remington 150 or 165gr CL works just fine for me.Usually easily found on any backwoods shelves, and not priced through the roof. Over the years when things actually went on sale and the prices were reasonable I stocked up on the CL's in both weights. I worked up loads using H-4895, which are for the most part factory duplicates, in that there is so little difference out to 200yds in the groups I don't sweat it if I have to pick up an extra box while out of town. I usually pick up a box on sale somewhere every year just to keep track of any changes. Witht he hogs around or simply practicing they easily get consumed.
For the 6.5, I have had it going on 20yrs and really never bought but two boxes of factory and that was when I first got the rifle. Since there were only two offerings when I got it I found that the $30'ish dollar a box thing simply wasn't my cup of tea. Year before last however I picked up a dozen boxes of Privi 139gr SP for around $12 a box. Figured it would work just fine on deer and hogs out to 100yds and was cheap enough. Turns out it best my handloads in accuracy from this rifle, so now that is our go to ammo. Several hogs and a couple fo DRT deer for the daughter and grandson, is proof enough for me. Once these are dwindled down I plan on simply picking up a case and being done with it. I plan to work up something equivalent using Privi bullets shortly after the first of the year as well so at least we have either to choose from.
