AXIS build 6.5x284

Recommended Posts

My buddy bought this caliber in Savage Long Range Hunter. Nice factory rifle and good shooter. He doesn't reload and has trouble finding ammo, at times. He likes the HSM stuff.

I am right around 2900 using R22 shooting 140 Berger elite hunters about the same with ELD X 143

Very nice rifle and performance.  What length barrel and twist?  What overall weight?

I have loaded a 140 HVLD over IMR7828SSC @ 3008fps with no pressure from a 24" 1:8"  Kreiger with great accuracy in the 6.5-.284 Norma.  Pretty cool.little round.  Much better suited for a LA than a SA.

It is 1-8 I made a mistake. I agree on the LA
