[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1102341, member: 54178"] I'm wondering how a [I][B]6.5 X 55 Swede in Ackley Improved[/B][/I] would do against those super fast cartridges mentioned. Ackley Improved shoulders (moved forward and sharply angled) seem to do well in intermediate cartridges. Any info on this? On the other hand... The 6.5/284 would be perhaps a better choice. Easier to get already formed brass and larger case capacity. This and the 260 Rem. are very close in ballistics. I'd choose the 260 Rem. for a much longer throat life. !,000 rounds out of a 6.5/284 barrel is not nearly enough, IMHO. (Take my advice with a grain of salt B/C it's coming from a 6.5 Creedmor supporter.) [/QUOTE]
