[QUOTE="farmerfrosty, post: 676463, member: 51278"] greyfox, I was also looking into a custom rifle that would serve double duty for prairie dogging as well as coyotes. I was leaning toward the 6 BR using 75 gr v-max bullets. I am very impressed with the accuracy and low recoil of this caliber. I have been lead to believe the 6 BR will reach out and touch em at long ranges. Also was wondering about the 6.5x284 in this situation. It seems to me the 6.5 would reach out even further, but what about the recoil difference, is it that much greater than the 6 BR ? I've been out of the loop for quite some time and the ballistics and ranges of these two calibers (though fascinating) are confusing for an old tractor driver!
