I would suggest that if you have a hankering for a 6.5, the give the 6.5-06 a go. And let us know how you get on.

Ive got a few options
In saying that, I dont really have a hankering for a 6.5 06, just that if I run with that then the bolt face will need little to no work.
6.5 PRC is also an option, and so is .280 Rem
See the thing is that after shooting the mighty .270 for 40 odd years ya tend to get a bit set in ya ways, especially when mine shoots so well, and then to be told that .270 in a carbon barrel is like rocking horse shit......well whats the world coming to!!! I mean fuck me!!!

Anyway, have to make a D fairly soon , and get on with it
