youngbuck Report post Posted July 31, 2011 I think the Savage 6.5x284 is on their long action, a 110. IIRC, BML has a LRH in the 6.5x284, he may shed a little more light on it. It looks nice to me for a factory rifle. The LRH is only a little more money and has an adjustable cheek piece and muzzle break. Not sure if you would want those, but an option if you do.

BML Report post Posted August 1, 2011 I do have that rifle and for the most part it's a great rifle. I'm having a little trouble developing a load, but only because I am trying to shoot a bullet that doesn't already have a lot of load data like the Bergers or Sierras do. I don't like the cheek piece, but it's removable. No big deal there. I've never shot it with the break in the open position. Recoil is very minimal with it closed. I'm not sure why it's even on that particular caliber rifle anyway. It doesn't do anything for accuracy whether open or closed. Overall I am very happy with it. I've shot several groups in the .6 range and several more in the 1 inch range. I am looking for the load that gets me under .5 and I am just about there. Let me know if you have any specific questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeithV Report post Posted August 2, 2011 thank tou for the infomtion BLAKE,I was loking back on savages site and saw the rifle i was talking about its a 110 predator hunter max. I dont think my boy needs an adjustible cheek piece or a muzzle brake. I do like the look and features of both rifles and will probabely ask more in the future.
