[QUOTE="Alberta Boy, post: 2429446, member: 108585"] Running 140 gr. VLD Hunters at 2960 with Retumbo and a 24” barrel. Accuracy is incredible, easy to load for and Lapua Brass is tough to beat. I’ve killed numerous moose, whitetails and bears in Canada with a 6.5x284 in the last 10 years and it has become the rifle I grab first over 300 Win and 7LRM. Barrel life may be a concern if you run it hot but as a hunting rifle I can’t see why you can’t get 1000 rounds sub 1/2 MOA and up to 2000 rounds under 1 MOA. All components are tough to find so don’t let that scare you. [/QUOTE]
