[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 99908, member: 5302"] Lerch, you ask: "And what about the 6.5x284, i dont know what the energy is a 1k but isnt it one of the most accurate muzzle to 1k rounds ever???" In talking with folks who've won matches and set records firing the 6.5x.284, it really isn't more accurate than the 30 caliber magnums it replaced. It's just easier to shoot accurate because of less recoil while the bullet's going down the barrel. And the bullets buck the wind better. Plus it's easier to make accurate reloads 'cause it doesn't have than horrible H&H belt to contend with; you gotta use a second full-length sizing die to reduce the H&H style case body diameter all the way back to that belt.
