[QUOTE="jacob_strass, post: 2589311, member: 121256"] I’m looking at jumping into a different cartridge. I’m looking at a 6.5mm something or another, this will be built on a medium length action with the ability to change bolt faces. The ones I have been bouncing between is: 260 rem AI, 6.5-284, 6.5 prc, 6.5 saum, 6.5 Sherman max. I’m wanting something I can shoot the 140-156 out of for fun to distance and also put some heavier copper bullets in it to hunt with. Wanting to have a 20-22” barrel to run suppressed but not give up to much velocity. The 260 rem AI is the most intriguing to me, I’m mainly concerned I’ll be giving up too much velocity in a 20-22” tube. Any thoughts or experiences with any of these cartridges are greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
