well Mike i appreciate all the info and feed back.  I jumped ship and sold my tikka :-[ :-[ :-[ and got a remington 700 long action to build my 6-284 on.  Just way to many stocks for the 700 build.  I am going to get a .30 cal tikka thought so i still have the tikka fever

MSGTmike, thanks for the insight man.  I knew i couldnt do the 6mmai in a short action so thats why i decided to use my Tikka.  I am wanting to stay with a medium weight bullet 75-90gr. bullet for pure speed to 500-600 yards. So i will have to buy a new Mag. and have the action worked on a little?
