[QUOTE="Coyote_Hunter, post: 1739087, member: 110773"] The 6.5-06AI is a great cartridge! Bought an Interarms Mark X action about 10 years ago and had Krieger true it and mate and bed a fluted stainless barrel to it in a Boyd laminate stock. Told Big Brother it was my "600-yard clay pigeon shooter" because it was. (He said he hoped it was good for more than that, which it definitely is.) With a 24" barrel it moves a 130g Scirocco II at 3161fps and a 140g BT @ 3075fps. If the Savage I have as a donor had a .473" bolt face it would become a sporter-weight 6.5-06AI. Instead it has a magnum .532" bolt face (it was a 7mm RM) and will most likely become 6.5 PRC or .264 WM. [/QUOTE]
