[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 821745, member: 68875"] I am in about the same boat as you, but add a caliber in there @ .277. .223/5.56 .22-250 .6MM Rem .250 Ack. Imp. .25-06 Ack. Imp. .270 Win Building a 7MM STW now .300 RUM I am looking at a 6.5-284 (long action) right now also. Should easily net you 130 @ 3000+ and 140 gr. bullet over 2900 fps in my research. The .260 Ack. Imp. (my other choice) in a short action shoots 120 gr. @ 3100+FPS, 130 gr. @ 3000+ fps, and the 140 gr. @ 2900+ FPS. There is also the 6.5-06 for a true long action. 130 gr. @ 3100-3250 FPS and 140 gr. @ 3000-3100 FPS. You can "Ackley" this round too for a little more speed if wanted. Or you could go totally crazy and get a 6.5 STW.....120 Gr. @ 3600 FPS, 130 gr. @ 3500 FPS, 140 gr. @ 3300+ FPS...... [/QUOTE]
