[QUOTE="tdregs13, post: 1032400, member: 36727"] Like I said game is almost indefinitely not going to be involved. Also I am going into the Air Force this fall and will not be able to shoot much while serving my time in. Additionally, I understand the reality of having to rebarrel, I just want something that will be ready to stretch out to 1000 yds and possibly beyond when the time allows (and when I'm a much more experienced shooter). Also I like the idea of a lighter recoiling, flatter trajectory, cheaper to shoot with factory ammo gun (.308 GMM is, from my research, about $2-$4 more expensive/20rd box than the 6.5CM Hornady match ammo). So in conclusion I think I have pretty much settled on the 6.5, but still looking for factory guns. Savage seems to be my best option right now--the only other factory gun I have seen chambered in the 6.5 is the Ruger M77. [/QUOTE]
