    Depends on what action you are using, but generally the T3 actions feed 6BR pretty good from a slightly modified mag depending on whether you are running short or longer 6mmbr loaded rounds. Also there is a pretty standard mag conversion for the rem700 short actions which will work great for the longer loaded rounds like 107grainers. It's just the short varmint bullets that can jam up occasionally on the breech face in the 700 action. I have done numerous 6mmbr rifles on both these actions. The Howa short action is another one that works quite well, if you prefer a staggered type internal mag system.

    Everyone has the right to their own opinion, but that doesn't mean that every opinion is right.
