I've been stockpiling brass for a 6.5 Rem. Mag. build on a CLR long 28 magnum action. From what I've read and seen here on the 'fire and elsewhere, it looks like stretching out that COAL and throating appropriately for the 130-140 VLD type bullets makes for a pretty efficient, LR 6.5 as well. Certainly nippin' at the heels of the 264 WM with less powder and presumably less pressure.
Would love to see a side by side comparison on these two (6.5 SAUM vs 6.5 Rem. Mag.), as they seem to be the most similar in the discussion other than the "belt" and the LA vs SA consideration.
Seems like a 700 Ti 6.5 Rem Mag. with some mag. box alterations would make for an interesting SA option to level the field a little bit as well! Just thinkin'.
