Thanks Homer.
That slightly smaller 6.5 is probably a wonderful round - don't get me wrong - I'd just prefer a bit more speed is all. A 6.5x57Ack. IMP will duplicate the 6.5x.284 and would be more inline with my choice for a 1,000 yard rifle, whereas the 6.5x47 would probably win me out for a 600yard postition rifle.

G'Day Fella's,
Daryl, don't forget one of the most Underrated 6.5mm"s, the Almost Forgotten 6.5 Rem Magnum!
When I get a chance to scratch myself, I would like to re-barrel an old BSA Royal action to to this cartridge! Ballistically, it outdoes the 6.5-284 by a useful amount (and still in a short action)!!!
Doh!
