[QUOTE="mike39, post: 706502, member: 26596"] I face the same dilemma. I have been shooting a Sako 6.5 x 55 for years (lots of white tails). In September I used it to drop a calf elk at about 250 meters using a reload with a 160 gr Woodleigh PP SP. I want something with a little more mv/case capacity and since Sako doesn't make a 6.5x284 I have decided to buy a Cooper M52 Classic. It has everything you need (24 in barrel 1:8 twist) to push 6.5s at good velocity. You might want take a look at them; price here in Canada is bit higher than the Sako 85. I am a nut case for 6.5 bullets/ballistics mike39 [/QUOTE]
