[QUOTE="su37, post: 434437, member: 5541"] Owning rifles in both cartridges I would opt for the 6.5x284. It will kill everything the 264 Win can out to 1200 yds. 50.0 grains of RL17 will fetch you 3,000 mv with a 140 Berger VLD. The 264's, and I love them, can be, in my experience and I've owned 3 of them, a more finicky cartridge for accuracy. In contrast the 6.5-284 seems easy to get there, with less recoil. Unless you plan on killing out past 1200 yards I seen no reason for a case that holds more than 70 grains of powder. In that case your recoil factor just went up.
