[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1321644, member: 70559"] A couple years ago I did a couple wildcats. A larger one and a medium one. The large one was a 6.5RUMLN. A 7RUM necked to 6.5 with the shoulder pushed back about .100" to make a longer neck. It had a 26" Christensen carbon wrap barrel. The other was 6.5SLR. It holds about two grains more than a .264 Win Mag. It used a stainless Pac-Nor barrel that finished at 27" (.550" at the muzzle) with deep flutes that took seven ounces off. I think both barrels weighed 40 oz. [/QUOTE]
