I chose the 6.5-284, as it was the LR shooter's darling at the time. It may edge the 6.5-06 in precision according to their info.

To get the fatter .284 case to feed, the action will need some tweaking and the follower milled for that round.

With the 6.5-06, just load'em and shoot'em.

Having owned and shot both, do your 6.5-284's group slightly tighter than your 6.5-06's, on the average? Just currious, as for a hunting rifle, a small difference wouldn't matter.
