I am very impressed with my 6.5CM. I have multiple loads shooting under .5moa. I just shot it at 700yds and was hanging right at .5moa with factory ammo.

Sweet! Factory fodder to boot. My b-in-law picked up a Nosler 48 in 26 Nosler. It seems like a Solid rifle. Does 3/4" with Nosler factory ammo @ 100 yds. For being in the same market price wise as the Mesa,I'd be inclined to try a Mesa. Not totally in love with the stock on the Nosler. Too Bell and Carlson.

I'm shooting a Nosler Liberty in 28 Nosler and a Mesa in 300 Win mag right now and overall I would say I prefer the Mesa. Both have been right at MOA for me out to about 500 yards with factory ammo. I am planning to do a lot more load development for both of them but have just been really busy.

My Mesa did not come with a thread protector. CA told me they are backordered.

Would you say the Mesa is lighter than the Nosler? Also,what bullet/s have you tried in the 300? I have a bucket of .30 180 grainers here and some new 300 Win brass.

Did you guys get thread protectors with your mesas?

Mine came with one.

Yes I believe it's lighter. Can't remember the exact weight of both off the top of my head.

I've been shooting the Hornady 178 ELD-X. I think I will also try some 185 Berger Classic Hunters and possibly a Barnes in the 180 range.
