[QUOTE="RevJim, post: 1247805, member: 86754"] I've had a 6.5x284 on Mod 700 SA on purpose. I only wanted to shoot the lighter weights for deer/etc at normal ranges (not over 400yds anyhow) I used the 125PT and 120BT, both going about 3200 in formed Winchester 284 brass. The Norma and Hornady brass couldn't get me there. I did have feeding issues in that Remington though. If I went with the standard case today I'd go with the 6.5/06 Ackley. However, if I was going to shoot the heavier bullets at real long range? Make mine the 26 Nosler! Whoopeee! [/QUOTE]
