Thread: 6.5-284

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.

The chrony is a CED M2 with IR screens and appears to be working well, so yes to that, although I would like to try it against something else in tandem.

What speeds were you getting with yours LR ? and what loads were they ?

The rifle is for a hunter that won't be trying over 4-500m so there isn't any point in trying to bust a foo foo getting max speeds, but rather get sensible speeds for max killing power.
