My Savage rifles in 6.5x284 Norma are what I compete with in IBS sanctioned 1000 yard benchrest competition.
I have a pair of Savage rifles in 6.5x284 Norma chambering and shoot one in "Light Gun Class" and the other in "Factory Gun Class". Here are the two factory rifles in their Pelican cases.

This was a group that I shot last summer, that was a bit over 5 1/2" for 5 shots at 1,000 yards, shot at the "Show Me Bench-Rest" club in NE Missouri. This was in the "Factory Gun" class with a Savage 6.5x284 Norma with 140 gr. Hornady A-max bullets.
