Helped my favorite uncle (a shooter with lots of good toys) with some legal issues last year, and he called me a few minutes ago and said that he's going to work me up a new rifle to match one he's making. (He wound up with two actions and two kreiger barrels and figured what the heck).
Its going to be a 6.5-284 Win., which I understand to be a tack driver.
Anyone have one of these, and any advice on working up some loads. What's the top end in terms of what you can hunt with one of these.
From what I can tell, they're a very special application with abysmally low barrel life (one site said that the 800 yard quarter minute of angle accuracy lasts only for about 700 shots before the groups open up).
I love getting a free rifle, but I don't want a money pit. Take me to school, fellas....
