Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles 6.5x284 vs .280

I would say a .280, just because I already have a .260 and am always pushing it a little hard on my 7x57. Otherwise it is a toss up, If you tend to hunt elk more then antelope I would pick the .280, and vice versa I would pick the 6.5-284, but either is fine for most anything. If you mostly hunt deer, its a draw........
