[QUOTE="Bang4theBuck, post: 2980107, member: 73596"] I built a 6x284 in a lightweight rig for hunting, and I love it. It isn't even in the same class as a 6 creed. I've had both and my creed was a tack driver, but something about dropping dimes on a target way way out there. I'm pushing a 110 grain A-Tip (worked well on an antelope) at right about 3500. That is waaaay faster than a creed. If you want to impress your buddies.....both will do it, but the 6x284 will do it better. Dies are available (today) and so is brass. One stroke of the die and 6.5x284 brass is 6x284 brass. No more effort than putting them through the die to true necks before first loading. Can't speak about barrel life and don't care. If I love every pull of the trigger, I'll worry about it 800 pulls from now. Keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
