[QUOTE="Kedron, post: 54951, member: 1578"] Hey, I have a Savage 10fp in .308 that shoots great but I was entertaining the notion of (at least when I get a better handle on this wind doping thing) rebarreling to 6.5-.284. Do any of you have experience with the savage short actions and the .284 case. If it will fit at all can I use the 142 grain smk. If the wildcat won't fit I suppose a .260 would be nearly as good but really doesn't offer much advantage over .308 besides slightly lessened recoil and possibly smaller holes in coyote pelts. I'd like any thoughts if you have them guys. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
