[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 947740, member: 61747"] Although I disagree on the 243 even 243 AI vs the 6.5 I do believe the 280AI is a nice set up for 7mm. Don't misunderstand, the 243 is awesome especially in AI. However, I have put 1500 rounds through my 6.5-284 and it is great cartridge with a high BC bullet. I am not sure what the 30-32 barrel is going to do for you but I would guess 3050-3100 with a 140 Berger. The 6.5 can use a 160 Matrix bullet with .680 BC for larger game and if you can get 2900 with the long tube that would very good. Whether you go 6, 6.5, or 7 is all up to you and the platform you choose to shoot from. Each has its limitations. [/QUOTE]
