[QUOTE="CogburnR, post: 550130, member: 29174"] As stated there are a couple of different versions of the 6.5x284. The longer version is now a standard caliber the 6.5x284 Norma. The throat is .300" or so longer than the 6.5x284 short version. Using RL17 and 140g Nosler Custom Competitions I get 2950fps in my Savage LRH which has a shorter than 26" barrel(26" including the brake). I usually shoot H4831sc and 140g Noslers for 2800+fps. Max around 2850fps or so. A true 26" barrel should have no problems reaching 3000fps with 140g bullets. [/QUOTE]
