[QUOTE="B23, post: 558825, member: 13222"] This is one of those 6 one way half a dozen the other. They are near mirror images of each other ballistically, with on the average, a slight FPS advantage going to the 6.5-06. I think the 6.5-06 case only has something like 2 water grains more capacity than the 6.5-284 does which is almost a moot point, IMO. Anything off the 06 case feeds like butter that's for sure but I've got a 6-284 and I've NEVER had a single feeding issue with it either. IMO, the fact that they are so close to one another and you can get 6.5-284 Lapua brass ready to shoot right out of the box would push me slightly toward the 6.5-284 and 1 box of Lapua 6.5-284 brass would last you nearly, if not, the life of the barrel. One thing is for certain, you can't go wrong with either!!! [/QUOTE]
