[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1436356, member: 87243"] If you have a long action mag bolt face, easy. Go with the .264 win mag, and I would twist it 7.5 so it will work with the 140's, but be perfect for the Berger 156 when it comes out, or will also shoot the 150 Sierra very well. If you have a long action standard bolt face, easy. Go with the 6.5x284. Everything else I said still stands for this as well. If you have a short action.....that changes things. Neither of those would be a good choice. Go .260 AI if you have a standard bolt face and want the same/similar performance as the 6.5x284 but will still fit in a short action. If you have a short action mag bolt face, go 6.5 GAP or 6.5 Sherman Shortmag and you will be more on par with the 264 win mag. All of these will send 140 whatever's at over 3000 fps. [/QUOTE]
