[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 558903, member: 29890"] The 6.5x284 with norma brass holds exactly the same h2o as winchester 30-06 brass or 1.1 grns more than winchester 25-06 brass, when necked up to 26 cal with the cases listed the 6.5x284 holds .5grns more powder than the 6.5-06. Plus the short fat rebated case of the 6.5x284 with its 35* shoulder is more efficient than the 06 case, the 6.5x284 wins velocity wise until you go to the 6.5-06AI then there is 3.5-5grns more capacity. Another thing is a loaded 6.5x284 round will be between 3.1 and 3.2" oal where the 6.5-06 will likely exceed 3.6" oal but neither is a problem in a LA remington. Anyway my vote goes to 6.5x284, its one of my favorites. [/QUOTE]
