[QUOTE="Tenntrapper, post: 5602469, member: 18110"] Don't misunderstand, I'm not bashing any of them...I just find it interesting... considering some other conversations we've had about the CM. I have nothing against the CM, I've owned a few of them...as well as Swedes, Grendel's, 260s, and now a 6.5-284. When deciding on the -284, I was also looking at the PRC. Components were non-existent for both. Then, I got an email from SPS...they had -284 brass in stock. I ordered some and went and bought the rifle. I like the 6.5s...no other reason other than just to be different.....and did before they were "cool". I don't shoot long distance either. As for ammo availability....I can buy all 3 today...online. And I dang sure wouldn't wait till I got where I was going to hunt to start looking for ammo. I would take it with me. There is nothing about this post that's meant to piss in anyone's oatmeal. God knows I've done lost enough friends over my opinion of the CM. And I don't even thinking badly of it. Just for 99 percent of hunters, there are better choices. Most hunter's don't have any business shooting at critters 500+ yards away. Inside 500, the 7/08 is the better/more versatile choice. Actually, there are a bunch of better choices. Again, this is just my opinion....don't no one go and get butt hurt over it. [/QUOTE]
