[QUOTE="two bears, post: 139301, member: 5480"] I built a 6.5 -06 on a mauser 98 action VZ 24 last year.I did a little research on the 6.5 -284 and the 6.5 -06 for ballistics purposes. I found the 6.5-06 is pretty close to 6.5 -284 in ballistics. Also reading in the new Hornady reloading book and Nosler 's reloading book , its very easy to use a 25 -06 case to run thru a full length sizing die in 6.5 -06 to form the 6.5-06 case. My barrel length is 26 inches , 1 and 9 twist. This rifle is very accurate that at three hundred yards , I can place all my shots in the palm of my hand .The 25- 06 case is the way to go because after you resized it , you just have to load it. No trimming . [/QUOTE]
