[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 2252629, member: 69478"] First off, both are great options. There are pros and cons to each one and I plan to build either one of these in the future. I also bounce around on which one I’m going to go with. Here’s my opinion on it staring with the 6mm Creedmoor. With the Creedmoor you can use your factory magazine box to fit and feed your ammunition. Brass, ammunition, dies, reamers, etc are all readily available and not extra expensive or hard to find. On the 6mm-284 you will have to neck down brass, most likely neck turn, have to have custom dies, and it will burn more powder. However, it’s a super cool cartridge and should run 150-200fps faster than the Creedmoor. It won’t feed out of the box magazine unless you’re running lighter weight bullets in the 75-85gr range.
