WOW! Lots of great info from you guys! I’m leaning towards shooting first to see how well it shoots, then make a decision. This gun isn’t going to be a competition gun so I’m not looking for 1/4moa, just a fun antelope/deer gun that I may shoot out to maybe 5-600yds. If it shoots 1/2-3/4moa, I would be very happy with that. I bought some 139gr Scenars, Norma brass and have a few pounds of RL26.

If/when I decide to switch out barrels, I’m most likely going to do it myself. That sounds like a cool project and save some time and money!! I’ve kinda always wanted a 6.5-06 AI but I’m pretty happy with the 6.5 x 284 and will stick with that cartridge

Love the replies y’all! Keep them coming!

All you need to know about Democrats is they call American citizens "Deplorables" and illegal immigrants "Dreamers"!
