Or off the shelf from Jim Briggs or Gun Shack You have a long action....6.5x284 or just the straight 284 Win Use Lapua 6.5x284 brass...neck up to 7mm....or use as is 6.5 Twist ? 7mm/ 9 twist for 180s..6.5mm use 8 twist for 140s Stuck on the 6.5mm....don't overlook the 6.5x55...OR 280 Ack Imp for another 7mm...
