[QUOTE="Frosty5050, post: 2429707, member: 119403"] My 6.5x284 is in a Savage 111 Long Range Hunter. Out of the box with factory ammunition it shot to 1/2 moa. It shoots about the same with a variety of handloads. Most of my original handloads utilized fireformed Winchester .284 brass although I have also been using the Lapua brass and mainly H4831sc. It has proven accurate and deadly on deer, antelope and elk with Nosler Partitions, ELD-X and SSTs. While I have mainly used the SSTs for fire-forming, they are extremely effective on antelope. It's a great, fun cartridge to shoot with mild recoil and long brass life. Within some range limitations, it's a very much do-all cartridge. [/QUOTE]
