[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1336362, member: 101755"] Well...had a new wrinkle thrown at me today. I was talking to another home gun builder (this guy is pro level) today. I was telling him how I couldn't pass on the long action Savage ($180 complete rifle). I was looking for a short action when I found the deal on the LA. Well...he has the exact same parts I've already bought...except he has a short action Remington 700 that has never been fired. He has the same stock I just got in the mail...the same EGW scope base so I'm thinking about taking him up on the deal. So the 6.5-06 will not fit in the action so that caliber is off the table. My original plan was to build a 6.5 Creedmoore...but the 6.5x284 is such an improvement over the Creedmoore...the 6.5x284 is a no brainier...got to buy new dies either way. [/QUOTE]
