[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1457688, member: 68875"] 6.5-.284 Norma is light on recoil, and you gain about 150fps (or more) over the 6.5CM. For a hunting rifle, to me anyway, it is a no-brainer to keep the 6.5-.284. Shoot it until it is done, then consider a swap of barrels. Like trading an SS Camaro for a Volt for your weekend fun car....sure, you will get better milage.....but that is not what it is built for. Plus, you can always load a 6.5-.284 DOWN to 6.5CM velocities, but not vice versa. [/QUOTE]
