I also like the look of the 6mm BR, but I also really like the look of the 6mm XC and 6mm Dasher @Curtis27.

What I'm liking about the XC - at least just from looking at the models - is that you can get stonking velocity with low pressures using slower powders, and hence (theoretically) longer barrel life.

I'm doing a comparison document at the moment so I can get my head around them, and I'll post it up here later.

I'm completely new to these cartridges and am using Quickload to see what's what. The only 6mm I've ever owned is .243, so if anyone knows something that I don't and it looks like I'm talking shit, please tell me.

@Uplandstalker has just put together an XC, I'm sure he'll offer some first hand experience soon.
