I"m looking at building something on a long action, .308 bolt face action.
I would like something that is inherently accurate, has good barrel life and is easy on the shoulder.
I know the 6.5x284 is known as a barrel burner, but I'm thinking with h1000 it might last a while?
6.5x55 or AI model is also on the list, don't know much about this round but it's a 6.5 option.
30-06, don't really need another 30 cal but it's also in the running.
284, another one I don't know much about, but have read and heard good things.
Any and all opinions and comments welcome.
