[QUOTE="atl5029, post: 1253360, member: 84273"] With the popularity of 6.5mm cartridges in long range shooting, particularly short action cartridges, I'm wondering why you don't see many people shooting the 6.5 Rem mag. I know the original rifles the cartridge was offered in were definitely not long range guns, and were in fact quite the opposite (Rem 600 series), and for that reason the brass is hard to come by. But there aren't any short action cartridges out there that I'm aware of that are factory standard and offer magnum ballistics in a short action, other than maybe the 6.5-284. You'd think people would jump on that kind of performance . [/QUOTE]
