[QUOTE="matt_3479, post: 1159211, member: 23070"] If that was related to my post. All I meant was going with somethin like a 6.5 saum is a little pointless because it matches the performance or beats the performance of the calibers you chose to build your long action off of. A fantastic caliber but if your building 2 6.5's I'd assume you want 2 totally different performers. So I meant to rule that out. The 6.5 creedmoor, 260. Rem and 6.5x47 all all similar performers and all have there ups and downs. I personally went with the 260. Rem but will try the 6.5x47 next. As for your long action caliber I like the 6.5-284. That being said. Something like building a 260. Rem out of your long action and building a 6.5 saum in your short action would be kind of cool. You would get the similar or a little better performance out of a 260. Rem vs 6.5 creedmoor escpially in a long action. Allows you to seat the bullets out like crazy. The short action, chambered in 6.5 saum will out perform the calibers you choose originally in the long action, with better barrel life! [/QUOTE]
