I have built a lot of different 6.5s for various customers over the years. All were just fine, but none worked the miracles that the customers thought they would. 260 Rems. 6.5X55s 6.5X284s, 6.5 Ackey Improved, 6.5-06s and 264 Win mags. (Of them all I still prefer the old 6.5 Swede to the rest.)

In fact I have yet to see a cartridge under 30 caliber that impresses me more than the old standard 270 Winchester when it has a 24-25 inch barrel.

But I will build what my customers like. It's their call.
