Thread: 6x45 magazine length

May I ask what projectile are you using in the .223?

There's certainly a lot more 75-80gr .224 projectiles available now to sustain that comment of @Hunter_Nick. The beauty of the 6x45 is to facilitate these weights in a short mini action magazine rifle, without the need to seat too deeply. Having said that, my above comment about building on a longer OAL mag still stands as the 85gr + weights can be driven pretty well with slower powders like CFE223.
At end of the day it's all splitting hairs as they are both very effective sub 300m calibers.
