[QUOTE="aramarine6, post: 874242, member: 24685"] I read thru and maybe I missed it. What is your definition of a "barrel burner"? How many rounds would you like to get out of your barrel? Because your definition might be different from alot of the posters. At least it is to me? Any cartridge that gives me less than 2,000 rounds is a burner. Is powder consumption and reloading components a factor for you? Look at the efficiency of the cartridge(powder charge to velocity). 260 rem vs 6.5-284. One has a clear performance advantage but at what cost? IMO the 260 remington is the best non magnum cartridge if you plan on shooting at distance alot. For magnum calibers I'd look into the 338's. I own a custom 338 RUM and I'll never own a different magnum cartridge. [/QUOTE]
