[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 974061, member: 12995"] A small 6.5 will be about the same on barrels as your .300 WM.... If you want all day performance, cheap to shoot, and incredible barrel life, it really doesn't get any better than a 24-26" heavy barreled .308 Win. Look into the Remington 700 5R MilSpec .308's with the 24" barrel. I have one that will shoot 1-hole groups with my handloads, if I do my part. And the only thing I've done to it was swap the trigger and put a scope on it. I've never even bedded it. Here's the measurement before subtracting for the bullet diameter... These are the 6" targets, not the larger ones.

The 1 flier at the top of the group was thanks to the glare from the sun. Other than that, it has potential to be a 1-holer.
