[QUOTE="HuntnPack, post: 2589361, member: 42721"] I’ve had a few 6.5’s. One of my favorites is the 6.5x284, w/ Lapua brass. I’d go with that or the 6.5 SAUM. Either one in a Med. action. Run 140 Berger’s rather than the 156. (Run the numbers). For a mono I’d try the 124 HH. If running suppressed, I’d go 22”to 24” Plenty of velocity. I’ve not been satisfied with velocities when I’ve opted for 20” bbl. Track down components for whichever cartridge you choose first tho. [/QUOTE]
