[QUOTE="Duckman208, post: 713944, member: 46466"] Thanks 406pat I will check 4D out. Tricki, I have a .300wsm that is my utility rig and the rifle I'm getting started on now is a bone stock savage model 11 .270 WSM. My intent is to build this into a longe range deer and smaller rifle and I have really had my heart set on a 6.5. That said from what I have read here at LRH there is a wildcat round that is a .270WSM case necked down to 6.5.( 6.5WSM). At present .270WSM brass is fairly easy to come by in my neck of the woods. I have been very torn on weather to stick with the 270 bore or jump into the wildcat realm with the 6.5WSM. It has been a while since I have bought any factory rifle ammo. After the reading I have done it sounds like in the short mag case I will be basically duplicating 264 Win Mag performance but with my current rifle this round will allow for the least amount of modification. Thanks for all the input I will definately need to pick some brains as I progress. Grif [/QUOTE]
