LoneWolf, I know what you are saying about the 6's. They are the dominate caliber in the games we play. With that said, I would have to change everything to get in the realm of the 6's. So for now staying with 6.5 is the better choice for me. If chambering a barrel for a short throated 6.5-284 would get me to +2950 in a short action, then I think I'd go with it.
Right now I can run factory ammo in the magazines for my comp gun but I end up with only 9 as compared to 10 with the 260. I thought of switching my 6.5-284 shilen barrel to my comp gun but with the throat being so long I'd end up with to much jump. I know that would not be good for velocity or accuracy.
