[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 721029, member: 25383"] One factor that's been left out is that if you opt for the 6.5/.284, and then buy a .338 mag barrel; you'll also have to change out the bolt head. But if you go with a 7mm mag (whichever one), all you need is the barrel. Of course if you went with a .300WSM (or 7mm WSM) you could simply install a .338 RCM barrel. I kinda like the WSM series as they allow you a little more flexability in the over all length area. If it were my gun, I'd probably do a 7mm WBY mag and a .338 Win mag as they both use the same bolt head. Of course you could get very serious and do the .358 Norma mag or even the .358 ST Alaskan. gary [/QUOTE]
