[QUOTE="57goldtopman, post: 1052992, member: 88062"] for quite a while I was seriously considering the 6.5-284. problem for me is that it does not come in the style rifle Savage is currently making. I really like the model 12 LRP or the 10 fcp hs. I had a lot of interest in the 111 Long Range Hunter and did not mind the brake but I have not read any really positive reviews on that brake since it appears to lock up with some use. also read about the barrel not being floated on that model. I wish I could get more positive reviews. I wish I could find more on the Rem 5R and Savage 10 FCP hs in 300 wm. not much of anything on those two online. I really like either/or. as for hunting long range, I highly doubt I will go beyond 500-600 yards on whitetail. so maybe the Creedmoor will be really good for what I want to do. I also really like the Savage Long Range Precision. I also recently noticed a new shooting competition which I may eventually start taking part in. Tactical Practical Precision shooting. looks like fun and would definitely refine my skills. it is very hard to figure out what gear is recommended for that type of shooting. again...maybe the Creedmoor? I am looking to be a one-rifle-guy that gets to know that rifle/round and use it effectively. I am probably asking too much of one rifle. so, on goes my delema. [/QUOTE]
