[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1252046, member: 10291"] Great choice! I'm going on 7 years with my 6.5x284 Cooper that has seen 700 rounds down the tube. Once I worked up my initial load I acquired 100 Lapua cases and enough components to last more then 1000 rounds. It is very consistent. I haven't even adjusted my zero for the last several years, and the Lapua brass looks and functions like its new. It still shoots .25MOA and in addition to numerous coyotes and PD's has seen over three dozen game animals shot from 200 to 1200 yards. It has been a superb hunting companion. My buddy just bought a Shilen pre-fit for his Savage. I will have to say that with this barrel, his rifle is one of the most accurate rigs I have seen. It has Benchrest grade accuracy consistently shooting groups that 300 yards that can be covered with a dime. I will be mounting one of these one my other 6.5x284's, a Savage LRH. [/QUOTE]
