Nancy Thompkins Galleger used to shoot a long necked cartridge, but I forget the caliber. I'm pretty sure it was a 243 that she shot over the course. It was supposed to help stop some throat erosion.

I don't believe the long neck theory. Where the throat wears is a long distance in front of the neck, wherre the rifling starts.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

I don't believe it either, said that I believe NTG used it. If it would have been the s**t, every HP competitor I know would probably have a chamber cut that way to save their good barrels and zero's.

Under competition scenario, is a 6.5x284 harder on a barrel than a .270 Winchester- all else being as similar as possible?

Truth is I don't know. I've never heard of or saw anyone on the line with a 270. I've used the cartridge hunting for years, but never thought about it as a "match" cartridge.
I've always used what worked for winners as my guide to caliber selection.

If anyone knows a long range accurate caliber, it's the HOOVERS !
With the selection in bullet weights is makes it a good choice for med sized hunting and a long range butt kicker. I have a Rem 700 LA with Hart stick barrel and love it !
