[QUOTE="Nomosendero, post: 2430181, member: 3622"] I look forward to your results! I notice some boohoo the RPM and act as though it would not be much faster than a 6.5x284. I understand diminishing returns and how it applies in this case to a relatively small bore but it seems to me with a 24' barrel for both we would expect 2950-3050 fps with a 6.5x284 and 3150-3200 for the RPM and I would expect the vel. difference to grow as the bullets get heavier assuming both are chambered in a matter to get optimal results. I have a M700 .270 that I am looking at converting to a REMAGE, I could go either way but I think an RPM with loads that are mild but still outrunning a PRC or 6.5x284 by a little has some merit. Getting a REMAGE tube in RPM could be a challenge but Likely to be available by someone. [/QUOTE]
