[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 58988, member: 10"] Tom, I have build alot of 6.5mm-06 AIs and they are great rounds in a rifle. They will easily hit 3100 fps with a 140 gr VLD and some will do better then that with long barrels. They are accurate, smooth feeding and cheap to load for. The 6.5-284 is just the popular kid in school right nowo and justifiably so. It is probably a bit more consistant then the 6.5mm-06 AI and offers nearly the same performance. As a target round, I would say the 6.5-284 has a slight edge in equal quality rifles. As a big game rifle, I would lean toward the 6.5-06 AI for is increased performance and smoother feeding. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
