[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 1954876, member: 91783"] ReemtyJ , I started out with an F-class Savage barrel at 30 inch's and 1-1/8 diameter 1 in 9 twist . I took it up to Hazzer Bulky at Bisson Barrels out of Spotted Horse Wy. had him turn it to a #5 taper and cut it to 26 inch's then put it on a savage long action in a McMillon a5 stock bedded the action and broke it in as per Savages recommended procedures . I ended up running Nosler 120 BT's with 44.5 grains of Varget . Each charge weighed as well as each bullet weighed . The brass was all Nosler ( made by Norma) each piece was fired one time then I set the die to bump the shoulders back .002 . I ordered a Lee precision cutter for the 6.5x284 Norma case length and cut them all to length de- burred them inside and out . I hand primed them with 9 1/2 rem. I seated the bullets to 3.230 which is .002 over the factory loads . It helped that I found it to like the factory loads that I found on sale from Nosler to get started and have some thing to work with from the start . [/QUOTE]
