[QUOTE="436, post: 497968, member: 16609"] I'm very much a 6.5 fan... I've had a few in my day... but to tell you the truth... my mind always seems to come back to the 6.5 Rem Mag'..., in a proper barrel length it's a “lead storm” on the range… I bought one of the first to come out in the Remington’s M700 back in the day, I thought then, as I do now; it was way ahead of the times…. Don't really know why it's not used more... it did pretty much everything my 6.5x284 did... and as Okie2 said; it could run very near neck & neck with the .264 Win Mag with a good hand load and barrel…. We didn’t have the bullets for the 6.5’s back then… but today there no reason the 6.5 Rem Mag shouldn’t get more respect, it’s a great old cartridge. My .02 as a 6.5 Rem Mag 436 [/QUOTE]
