    @northdude have you considered a 6.5-06 Imp?

    A mate of mine did one and it rivals my 264 win mag with less powder. You can neck down 280AI brass and go for it...

    Just a thought.

    The fast 6.5's are flat shooters and drop game well, they do tend to be hard on barrels and the killing capacity of the cartridge is limited by the bore diameter at the end of the day.

    Good Luck with the build, I look forward to keeping an eye on it.
    Warm Barrels!
