And the Inline makes it easy to take a press to the range to do some development. It also works well in other small spaces in the home.

Hespco, should that be .050 and .060? A half inch would be a big jump.

The best for 2000 rounds would be a 6mm BR. It is historically one of the better 600 yard bench rounds. 6mm Creed will give more speed, but lower round count. There is great brass available for both - Lapua, ADG, ?

Your 6.5x284 and the 6.5 PRC have near identical case capacity, so you should get close velocities from the same barrel length. The .280 AI should be very close to the 7mm SAUM with almost identical case capacities. For me, the .280 AI is the better choice, if you might have to argue with a bear.

That is a short neck for a 30 caliber.

And for those of us who are bald???

Picture could be better, but first impression is Nosler partition of the older variety.

Did you run a tall target test on the scope to calibrate chicks and check tracking?

Lucas bore guide is a great option.

If the chamber was done correctly, .004 short of the parent case, there is no need to expand and downsize the neck or seat the bullet into the lands. A/I was designed to safely fire the parent. There should be a “little” resistance to closing the bolt on the parent. You can also use pistol...

I am not sure about the 150 Game King (BTSP), but several have and use .270 AIs on this Board and should be able to give you and idea.

Search codyadams here. He has used the 156 EOL in .260 AI and 264 win.
