My 6.5X284Norma shot 140 Berger's really well and was really effective at killing a lot of rocks. So much that I burned out the barrel and never shot a single animal. I need to re-barrel that one. I can still clean it up really good and shoot it but after about 10 rounds the accuracy will wonder a little. I have a new 264Win that is just setting in the case never fired. I want to use the 142ABLR in it. My 6.5creed gets fed 140 Berger's also..... Also something I seen the other day on backfire TV and it made me think about it and its so true. When you see a lot of people take there 6.5 PRC and cut the barrels down to like 20 or 22 inches and then use a suppresser you might as well be shooting a 6.5 Creed. with a 24 or 26 inch barrel. You basically take the magnums and turn it into a creed with the short barrel. Only short barrel gun we own is my wife 243 and it came that way. It's a T3 lite with I think a 20 or something like a 21.5 inch barrel. Every thing we have ever ran through it if the box states 3000fps then it going to be like 200fps slower.</p></blockquote><p></p>
