My buddy just had a 6.5x284 built on a 700 LA, #3 SS Shilen, ADL bottom, dropped into a T.i takeoff. It feeds flawlessly from the magazine and it's a slick rifle, for sure.

I don't really see too much of a difference either way you slice it. Being able to buy Lapua brass for the x284 is a huge upside, though.
