[QUOTE="trebark, post: 435509, member: 19172"] A factory Savage in 6.5x284 would be a great platform to start a build. A buddy of mine has a Savage in 300win mag with the factory barrel and with handloads, it shoots .5moa all day long. Another friend of mine just emailed me some questions about the Savage Long-Range Hunter. (I think that might be the rifle you're looking at). It is offered in 308, 300wsm, 25-06, 6.5x284, 7mag and 300win mag. Among those, my choices would be the 300wsm or the 6.5x284. The only advantage the 300wsm might provide is great barrel life. Other than that, the 6.5 smokes the 300. The other thing to consider in your project is optics. The old adage rings true...buy the BEST you can afford...you will not regret it. [/QUOTE]
