[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1517015, member: 85987"] I think to answer the WHY? 6.5/284 where I live on the east coast, outside of F class and some local 300yd shoots is fairly hard to find in a shop. It's a nice cartridge with some great brass as long as you have a long action. Very competitive without the recoil of a bigger gun. Outside of the west it has little following in the hunting world due to marketing and availability. Yesterday at the range about 1300 2 retired gents were shooting their 6.5prc's Does all the same things good and bad. They bought them for "long range deer hunting" up in Maine. Which unless they are sitting clear cuts means 200yds and in. The marketing Hornady does is a marvel you have to admit. [/QUOTE]
