    You were meat shooting and fired less than 80 rounds a year? The 6.5-284 will run a 140 out at 2900 from a 24" barrel no problem, it just seems to need the longer barrel to achieve the 3050 or so...

    Are you 100% happy with your chrony? I had a 24" barrel 6.5x284, it was hard to get any good speed from it. Id say try N560 and be prepared for a reasonably short barrel life.

    It does eat barrels very fast if you are running high pressures, and harder on the barrel than most powders in general. I have also found it to cause a lot of carbon fouling.

    I also have plenty but I don't use it anymore. Whats your round count so far on your 6.5x284 Duck Gunner? Do you find your barrel time consuming to clean?
