[QUOTE="Buck Fever, post: 1866667, member: 113501"] I like 284 better than 6.5x284 so 6.5x338 RUM is way too overbore for me. Actually the true wildcat I load for is less overbore than a very similar factory cartridge but out performs it to 900+ yards where they are both only good for punching paper. I'm continually amazed by people creating small bore Wildcats with huge cases. I guess they do it for varmint hunting? Burning out a barrel for varmints seems kind of wasteful to me. [/QUOTE]
