[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 820022, member: 10178"] I have never had the 6.5x284 but do have a 264 Win Mag that is a shooter. The longer the barrel the better. Mine has a 27 3/4" Shilen and with 130 Accubonds it averages 3350 fps with Retumbo and is a tack driver and will reach waaaaaaaaaaay across a bean field and drop a deer in mid munch. :D I guess it really boils down to what you want the rifle for. If it is target work then the 6.5X284 might be better but for hunting I like the 264 Win mag for just that little more velocity. [/QUOTE]
