[QUOTE="Lapua guy, post: 483642, member: 28489"] All of the options above make sense, except I would hazard against building a 6.5-284 on a SA. I would put those on LAs only unless you want just a single shot. It will perform better on a LA. For long range hunting, either the 300 WSM, 7WSM or 270 WSM, but you will need to change the bolt face. For long range targets, and up to coyote maybe deer, 260 Rem is probably your best choice. For long range target shooting, it is hard to beat the 6 Dasher. The 6.5x47 Lapua I wouldn't put into comparison with the 6.5-284 in LR hunting capabilities. Great round, but different spectrum and capability. [/QUOTE]
