Just back from the range shooting the 6.5-284 I've just finished assembling on a Savage action. The 620mm 24.5") barrel sent Norma 130gn target ammo downrange at 3090 fps average with a low ES and...

The Norma box says 3035 fps from a 26" barrel so to get 3090 average from a brand new 24 1/2" barrel that will gain a bit of speed with break in is pretty good. All three groups were under 18mm @100...

I’m glad you started this thread. Often joked about, but you can’t really go past a 7mm08 as a do all kiwi hunting rifle. I’ve used a few but only ever owned one. This little Model 7, with a carbon...
