Remington, Federal, Winchester, Norma and even my local favorite firm, Georgia Arms all offer factory loading for the 6.5. Most factory specs show a 140 grain bullet at 2500-2600 F.P.S. and about 2000 lbs. of energy at the muzzle.
Although 100% of the rounds that I have fired through my M22 Phoenix have been handloaded (by me), some factory loads are available, as indicated above. In addition, The Hunting Shack makes excellent factory ammo, and among them are a small number of 6.5xx55 SE loads. See: http://www.thehuntingshack.com/catalog/retail/
My Sierra 120gr hunting load delivers about 2,800fps and just over 2,000 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle.
