[QUOTE="Frank in the Laurels, post: 1170343, member: 8845"] Of all the cartridges out there in my opinion the 6.5/284 is the most finicky !! I've had the pleasure of seeing at least 50 of them with most being smithed by the finest gunsmiths on the planet that one day would do this and the next day the same guy would be screaming/pulling his hair out...the most common word used with this cartridge under bench rest competition is "that's impossible"... Maybe it's just me but this would be one of the toughest cartridges to get to be consistent day to day under all types of conditions. I noticed that things were better using the original winchester .284 casings which are scarcier than capped hen's teeth, results were less finicky than with the newer available casings. Good luck with this one, patience is a virtue ! [/QUOTE]
