[QUOTE="mitch260, post: 966349, member: 53720"] I'm not sure what you mean by "optimal", but if I was doing a 6.5x47 I would go with a 20" barrel. If I was planning on using a 24"-26" barrel and single loading, then I would probably go with the 6.5 creed. For magazine feeding I would definitely go with the 6.5x47 due to the shorter case which allows bullets to be seated out farther. Its kind of like the .338 lapua vs the .338 norma. I hope that helps.
