[QUOTE="Fred Ea, post: 640268, member: 43009"] Mitchell, The rifle I am having built in 6.5-06 was a 280AI, but was a rifle I traded for that was rechambered from a 7mm Mauser. It was a rem 700 mountain rifle with a thin barrel and just wouldn't shoot, the best I could get out of it was 1/3/4 MOA with anything I put through it, but I chaulk that up to the stock, thin barrel. The light weight made it a rip rouring, rip snorting, fire blowing piece. So the reason for rebarreling and the recoil was a bit much for the light weight. Another reason was it never fed well either from the magazine, it had a tendency to catch when feeding into the chamber. It is a fine round and put out almost 7mm RM performance.lightbulb FE [/QUOTE]
