Default 6.5 bullets

I know there are a couple of offerings out there such as the Sierra 85gr and the Speer 90gr and the 95gr vmax but the question is-

Does anyone make a smaller bullet for 6.5 like 70-75grs?

Berger made a small run of 85 grain FB 6.5 several years ago. Guess there wasn't any interest, they are gone.

Sierra makes an 85gr HP. I wish someone would make them down to 70-75gr to give the round a wider spectrum to what it already has..

The problem is short jackets, nobody makes them. Berger made a small run for the 85s, then quit. I know a fellow in OH that has dies, but can't find short jackets.
