New TMK announced

Or 6-284

I wonder what kind of speed you could expect with the 117 out of a 6-284 with an 18-20” barrel. You have me thinking now.

I'm sure most of you talking about a 6-284 are going to use a Tikka but years ago I had some 6.5-284's. They fed but I had to be easy with them. Seems like on occasion I would have to help a round too. This was with adl Remingtons not mag fed though. I wonder if a 6-06 would feed better depending on the rifle type being used?

I have some sentimental model 70's that were gifts. One is a 300win one was a 30-06 I made a 280AI out of a long time ago. I've no use for the 300 and would like to rebarrel it to a big 6 if the long action won't cause feeding problems. At some point I would like to redo the 280 to a 6mm but due to the 6.5-284 I've kinda thought about a 6-06. Just curious and tossing it out there.

The 284 case works perfect with tikkas. There’s a lot of guys with them.

I would like @hereinaz to do one of this groups buys in one.

The only hang up I have in doing it is in an 18-20” barrel based on using AI to collect and analyze data, a 243AI is projected to get the same velocities with less powder.
