    Why do 264WinMag's suck?

    Used to be in live with them but theyre a barrel burner without the payoff. A 6.5/284 isnt far behind it in velocity and miles ahead in barrel life and efficiency. And if you want balls out speed the 6.5/300wsm variety is the way to go

    What do you call miles ahead? - Most of the 6.5/284s I have had anything to do with have toppled over at around 1000 -1200 rounds and sometimes earlier and at the most inconvenient time ie in the middle of several day shooting champs. Probably not a problem in a hunting rig although if you get a kick out of bombing goats you could reach that round count soonish. No free lunches with hot calibres is there?
