[QUOTE="nwhunter, post: 2429352, member: 30991"] I had a 6.5/284 on a Mauser action, that allowed me to utilize the longer magazine box. Someone else really wanted the rifle so it went away. I also had and still have a 6.5/06 and it shoots just as well, and both are great deer rifle cartridges. I sure wouldn't pass one up if the right deal came around. I also sold my model 70 264-win mag as I seemed to reach for the 6.5/06 when I wanted to go hunting. I even sold my model 70 in 270 as it just seemed to gather dust. The 6.5/284 is a fine cartridge, I favor a long action for it. [/QUOTE]
