[QUOTE="Badgerclaw, post: 1540580, member: 101780"] This is a perfect example naming a cartridge just right to make it it sell. This is a 6.5-06 ackley improved. BUT!!! people see the "06" in the name and immediately lose interest. 6.5- 280 ackley is a much better name without the 06 in there. Sure the shoulder might be moved forward or back just a bit from a 6.5-06, I don't know. But tweak an already existing cartridge, throw a fancy name at it, at just the right time (during a 6.5 craze) and boom! You just made money. This is my exact reasoning for naming this thread the way I did, put the words 6.5, long range, in the same sentence and all the 6.5 creedmoor/ PRC guys wet their panties a little bit. If I had named this "264 win mag, bla bla bla" I might have had a two page response [/QUOTE]
