[QUOTE="Vleder, post: 438739, member: 27841"] I am still in the building/deciding phase, will most likely be single shot and RSA action? Stock will be a solid aluminium custom job and action fitted with 2 massive screws. I am looking for a 6.5 that will push the 140g to 3 000fps safely and still have some sort of barrel life. I will not be shooting looooog strings and will clean regularly, mainly for LR hunting and some local competitions (grouping and target), sau 300 - 400 rds p.a. What sort of barrel life can I expect given the above with 6.5x284 6.5x55 I was also actually looking at the 260 Rem, can I reach at least 2950fps with the 140g? [/QUOTE]
