[QUOTE="Stormbringer, post: 324338, member: 4693"] I shoot a 6.5 ICBM. This is a 7mm STW necked down to .264 with a 35 degree shoulder. I have shot the 100 and 120 grain ballistic tips. They are accurate but they lack the high BC I am after plus that large of a case is only justified if you are going to push the 140's to higher velocity than the 264 mag imho. I am shooting the 140 and 142's to 3450fps. Rifle is a trued 700 long action with a single shot adapter glued in. HS Precision stock, Badger Ordinance 20 MOA base and bolt knob, 26" heavy fluted stainless steel K&P barrel w/brake and 1-8" twist. The rifle weighs 12.5 lbs with a Nikon 6.5-20x44 Monarch scope. I use it for long range chucks and big game if not going to far or too high! [/QUOTE]
