[QUOTE="Craig Dodd, post: 163406, member: 4127"] 6.5 STW - go big or go home... I have a 6.5 Baer and without a set of chamber prints and a good mic you can't tell it from an STW. However, my 1:8 Krieger barrel is heat checked for about 3.5 to 5 inches with only 350 rounds down the pipe. Owning your own Hawkeye has some drawbacks... I would, as Goodgrouper recommended go with a 6.5x284 or the new 6.4x47 - Lapua brass is available for both and your barrel will last, and last, and last... [/QUOTE]
