    Had the 6.5 @Dazzh its pretty awsome

    Yeah, I'm keeping an eye out for a 6.5 barrel atm. If something appropriate pops up I'll grab it.

    Tough one for me
    My 243 with a 1:8 barrel will do everything I need it to in NZ (I don't shoot cattle) but I love playing with the flexibility of my 358 from 357 pistol bullets to the tough Nosler BT's but it's too limiting in range at around 300 mtr. ( No modern high BC bullets ).
    Like the flexibility of the 7mm's but not a magnum fan so the 284 Win maybe my pick. 100 gr bullets at 3480 fps for small stuff and 168gr 28-2900fps
