I did a search and couldn't come with anything on this point. I am planning to build a long range prone rifle for 1000 yard competition. I think that 6.5 x.284 would be the best caliber for me when the factor of it's moderate recoil is taken into account. The downside with this caliber is barrel life. What about the 6.5 x 55 or one of its improved versions? Please weigh in with your experience and opinions.
