i have some thing better 6.5 wsm and its not a barrel burner like yoursWho here has built and hunts with a 6.5x284? I have an action on the way and still undecided on stock and barrel contour. Post what you have, what you like about your build, and what you would change, if anything.
Just got mine done last month and couldn't be happier. I don't think I would change anything. I just can't wait to do some killin with it. Here are the specs;
Rem 700 LA trued
27" Lilja 1-8 twist .6.5-284
fluted Rem Sendero/Varmint taper
badger bolt knob
tuned Rem trigger
black matte cerekote
McMillan HTG sniper fill (molded woodland camo)
Talley light weight base/ring combo
Leupold VX3 6.5-20x50mm LR
weight is perfect for me for hunting at 11lbs even with scope
Here is load I worked up;
Lapua 6.5-284 brass
140 gr Berger hunting VLD's
51.5 gr H4831sc
Fed 210 GM
COL 3.080"
2950 fps
Feel free to email any questions
Thanks,
Doug
