Thread: Short barreled 6.5-284

More just after anyone who has a short barreled 6.5-284 or even 6.5x55 to see what sort of speeds one could expect from the shorter barrels..

nice way to pass the time wondering what cartridge to go for. Straight 284 be similar but different application and prolly be a good 200 to 300fps behind your full length 280ai?

30/284? Would make use of the short barrel nicely I would think.
