Adam,
The 6.5x55 was put out by Rem in 1994.

I have just one 96 in original condition, all matching, I bought for $100 and a few that are altered to sporters with various stocks, mesquite, maple, black walnut, english walnut, etc. Plus I have an action, with parts, and 3 or 4 new M-38 barrels in the white. When I get my shop building built on the farm, I will put that all together with a different (from the others) type of wood stock. The 6.5x55 is just a great cartridge.

The 35 if still new, unfired, now lists at $900 in the blue book, it was put out in 1988.

I had a lady ask me in Tulsa if the Classics were really bringing that kind of money, her husband bought a Classic at the show, and so I gave him a hand up by telling her they were going up every day if kept clean.
