[QUOTE="Tyler Kemp, post: 256649, member: 6290"] I am getting 3400 fps from 95 grain SMK's in my 26" 6mm Ackley. I was hoping from a 30" 6mm-284 I could get near that with the new 117 grain DTACS. Supposedly they are going to be able to handle extreme velocities, and a .6 BC at 3400 fps with very little recoil is something to behold! It sounds like the barrels still shoot more rounds than conventional wisdom would say they should. The brass was another concern for me. Lapua 6.5-284 should be able to withstand some hot loads without losing primer pockets. I'm not really concerned about feeding, I usually shoot single shot all the time. Actually, with my 6mm I always shoot single shot and I've never had a problem with a quick followup round. Thanks for the info! [/QUOTE]
