[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1014242, member: 12995"] One thing I've seen mentioned quite a lot about the 6.5-284 is that they tend to be barrel burners, and aren't the best option for doing a lot of shooting and range work. As strictly a hunting rifle, I think it would last a very long time. I like the looks of the 6.5-284, but have not personally owned one. Shot one before, and it was nice. I like the .260 Ack Imp. I have been reading up on that one for years and would really like to build one someday. I think it you were going for a 50/50 target and hunting rifle where barrel life is sort of a concern, a 26" sendero-contour barreled .260 AI running Berger 140 Hybrids, built on a long action Rem 700, would be a force to be reconned with. But that is just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
