[QUOTE="hhack, post: 1024185, member: 52715"] I have two rifles that will be needing new tubes here shortly and since it is too cold to go out I thought I would start researching. One of the actions will be a 6mm AI but I would like to go with a 6.5 with the other. One action is a long action and the other is a medium. So either one could go 6mm AI or I could barrel the appropriate 6.5 for the action length. I am looking at a 6.5-06 or 6.5x55 for the long action or 260 rem, 6.5 creed, or 6.5x47L for the medium action. I am looking to build a heavier barreled rig that is fun to shoot, that can also hunt if needed. I already have 6.5x284 that is set up for pack hunting and I don't want to have to modify the feed rails or bolt face. Right now I am really leaning toward the 6.5-06 or 6.5x55SE as I think they would work well in my lone action. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
