Why do people think the 6.5 -.284 is any better than the regular .284 Win.?

Dude... In New Zealand they use LH twist.

I will have to remember that next time I am going south of the equator to hunt...must get LH twist rifle made

I think it's a Brit thing that carried to their territories.  You can get an Enfield, they're LH twist.  Something about how most shooters are right handed and a LH twist rifle will push more toward the right during recoil, a RH pushes to the left which is weak side.  Gives more deflection, your sight would be further off target after the shot.

400 small block is a boat anchor. Just saying.

But if you can neck down those cylinders...would it be more than a boat anchor?

This thread is starting to remind me of a truck forum. 

"Bro you gotta have them 37" Nittos and a 6" long arm lift if you expect to get to work when there is a skiff of snow on the ground...if you settle for the 3" lift, you'll only be able to fit 35's and they might rub...how in the world you expect to navigate those tank traps?"

It really has nothing to do with that... Say your building a *censored* 68 camaro, you want say, true 400 hp out of a small block, you gonna use a 283 or a 400 small block???

I'd start with the 283 because I hate those over heating, siamesed cylinder, POS 400's but that's just me.

you don't have to explain yourself to .257.  He shoots weatherbys....factory...weatherbys.  By choice.

Really?  I killed 3 deer in 2 weeks on my daddies ranch, I killed  2 elk with my  bow and blah blah, I'm selling my Sitka gear and getting the best, blah blah blah .....

One thing is for certain justin , that 257 Roy shootin factory ammo has killed a bigger mule deer buck than you or any of your "custom" rifles.... Just sayin

It is apparent that one of us is taking this waaayyyy more seriously than the other.   

BTW, did you hack into my Christian Mingle account?  You seem to know what too many "facts" about me?

It always amazes me how jacked up and opinionated people get over hot rod/stroker calibers, when a HUGE percentage of those same people are unable to max out the capabilities of calibers like .308 Winchester.     K.I.S.S.    Just sayin
