[QUOTE="Wizard, post: 1021280, member: 5208"] I built my 6.5-284 with a Benchmark barrel and very happy with it. They have gunsmithing services and can mount it on an action and put the rifle together for you if you wish. I too love Savages and mounted the barrel myself. I am very touchy about my hearing as I lost so much of it due to shooting. I do not own any ported guns as a result. The 6.5-284 does not have a heavy recoil and comfortable to shoot several in a row, IMHO. Remingtons have dangerous triggers (old and new) and would (and did) replace it with an aftermarket trigger. I had a Remington that went off in the dark at the beginning of a deer hunt when I closed the bolt. It went off again when I clicked off the safety when coyote hunting once. You will like the 6.5-284 as it is accurate and fun to shoot with moderate recoil. Check out the Vortex Viper scopes for a lot of scope at a good price. [/QUOTE]
