Light and Heavy, check out Prophet River

im not sure the barrel is medium contour...?

I know cabelas carry the Ruger, I even bought a 223 one when there was 100$ OFF but was wondering if there was other options with a similar barrel contour

I have shot the 6.5 Swede, 260 Rem (still do, probably always will) and now have a 6.5 Creedmoor. I can't tell a lick of difference in these three great cartridges. Creedmoor has the advantage of more plentiful factory ammo options, but thats where it ends as far as I can see.

Which one of these is easier to reload (mostly availability) and has the best barrel life?

Who wears out barrels these days?

Who wears out barrels these days?

Even sometimes someone does, new barrels are manufactured daily
