[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1296837, member: 70559"] hawkhunts, Since I love high velocity and Weatherbys I would go with the 6.5/300. I have a third option though. A couple years ago I rented a couple reamers. One was a 6.5/.338 RUM and the other was a 6.5 neck reamer. The 'smith ran the chamber reamer in then finished with the neck reamer so I could use either .300 RUM or 7RUM brass. It makes a long neck more like the Weatherby case. I do believe if the 6.5/300 was out at that time I would not have made my 6.5RUMLN. It runs Nosler Accubonds 140s at 3,419 feet per second average. [/QUOTE]
