[QUOTE="liltank, post: 422713, member: 13275"] Some quotes from the magazine: "The center-feed design of the Savage internal box magazine feeds cartridges more smoothly than a conventional staggered magazine, ans it is extremely reliable as well." "The Long-Range Hunter will be offered in several popular chamberings, but the star of the show in my opinion is the 6.5x284 Norma. Try it on your next hunt. You'll thank me later." "Among the bullets tried in handloads, the star accuracy performers in this particulasr rifle were the Hornady 129grn SST and the Swift 130frn Scirocco II." Load info: Hornady 129 SST RL 22 54.0grns 3.045" 3015fps 0.67" at 100yrds Swift 130 Scirocco II RL 22 54.0grns 3.060" 3028 0.72" at 100yrds Nosler 120grn ballistic tip was the most accurate for the factory loadings. You want to stay away from the Scenar bullets because they don't expand. Tank [/QUOTE]
