6.5 creedmoor!!!!!, runs on a shortened 308 case, very accurate and gives very similar performance to the 6.5x55 with less powder I had a go on a creedmoor at muckos gong shoot and walloped the 800 meter gong with it.

So you already have a 308 and it shoots fine, simple whack a reamer up its bum and it is a 30-284, will mag feed tho you may? loose a round capacity in a M7? not up on the remingtons
Mine is pushing a 178gr amax just shy of 3000fps from a 25" barrel which is a useful gain over the 168 amax I was running at 2750 as a 308.
yes this calibre does go better with heavy bullets in a long action allowing seating out of bullets but really its splitting hairs it goes well mag fed from a short action.

Thanks everyone for your input. Interesting and I learnt a few things.
As I said , I have two other very good .308's, so don't need 3, and a few classic rifles which I don't want to wear the original barrels out on.
While, from your several inputs, there are obviously some potential conversion solutions, I think the suggestions of "sell it and look for what you want elsewhere, with the $$ received" makes a lot of sense.
Therefore the rifle is now sold and I will start looking at some of the other gear that is for sale around the place. probably a hv 7mm or .308 cal with fairly high medium / long range retained energy in hunting / sporter configuration.
Thanks all for your help.
ive got a 22inch 6.5 wsm barrel vulcan, fluted and threaded, will fit remington, 150 shots (probily less) $200
Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

Buying a Leupold VXR 3-9 scope with 30mm tube, Illuminated TMR reticule and Milrad tactical dialup dials and putting it on my 30-06, with the money from the Model 7 sale.
