[QUOTE="RevJim, post: 1435141, member: 86754"] I like the 264WM too, never owned one. If the OP is just shooting deer with a few elk hunts thrown in, I know the 6.5/284 will do it. If he wants a bigger hammer, with more elk hunts in the future, the 280AI or similar Wildcat will work swell in the Mod 700 Long Action; but...that long action is also easily converted to the Magnum rounds and the 7mmRUM, STW, add many others....and "Bang", you have a rifle for 500+yds deer and elk...but Kenny Jarrett made a lot of money building 5-600 yd "Beanfield Deer Rifles" and many were in 280AI. But, either way, have a ball my friend! Oh yeah...I use a 338 Win Mag on elk. I like Big Hammers...:) [/QUOTE]
