[QUOTE="Wilderness Blacktail, post: 1775960, member: 27906"] It's a neat cartridge with real velocity potential but if you read much on it you'll find out that they dont all get there easily. Some are finicky in getting either velocity or accuracy or both. I have one of those. Haha I'm finally getting there now but its takin a few pounds of powders and diff bullets over several months. It's not as fast as I wanted, but oh well. So in the case of my rifle at least you may end up with essentially 264WM +P speeds but burning 85-89gr of LRT to get it. I also ran 91 & 94 gr of US869 but that powder isnt consistent enough in my gun. With brass it's easier to find 300wby brass and neck it down, I neck sized mine .284, then full sized 6.5-300. Norma shooters pack deal of 100 cases was a awesome deal. [/QUOTE]
