Thread: Quick 6mm's - 6XC, 6x47 and 6mmCM

I have a Model 7 that needs a rebarrel. This has been my main hunting rifle for a few years in 260imp (30degree). I never really got the best out of the case, as it was the thin factory barrel and only a 1:9 twist. I'll look at a full length SA for doing this again. But reckon the Model 7 action would suit one of these shorter 6mm's with a 1:8 or even 1:7.5 in a heavier contour. 243 is a little long to get the best from the reduced length action. I may put the action in a mill yet and open entry from the magwell too.

So the question for you lot is; who is already shooting one of these 6's, what projectile, barrel length and velocity?

I'm thinking down the lines of a 1:8 with a 105 or 108gn from a heavy 24 or most liekly 26 inch with a break. This will be for shooting PRS style match and likely to see the end of some smaller game too.
