[QUOTE="John-Pure Precision, post: 756005, member: 15352"] I have built three off of a savage platform. Two shillen barrels and one CBI. I use stockade stocks. Stockade has there own DBM that they have yet to advertise. If your budget is 1k I would probably go with the LRH. I have over 1400.00 in each one. People are going to tell you 6.5x284 is bad news due to throat erosion... It has never bothered me. For the kind of application you are wanting to use it for I would consider a .300 win. Mag.. I built mine with a 26" 1:10 twist heavy sporter CBI barrel, on a savage 116. I'm currently shooting berger 230 gn.OTM with a B.C. .719. Rifle weighs 9lbs using stockade thumb hole. The best groups so far is 5 shot at 805 yards measuring 3.8" and right after that another 5 shot group 4.1". I have a KDF sniper brake that is awesome! The 6.5 would fit your needs, the .300 would fit your needs. It' just up to you and what you really want. [/QUOTE]
