[QUOTE="Joel Russo, post: 519988, member: 6152"] You'll be hard pressed to run the 6mm 105-107 gr bullets that fast. I've been down that road, and barrel life is around 500 rounds, not to mention they are really hard to get to work. The larger 6mm cases like the 6-284, 240 Wby, 6-06, etc.. will be your best bet, but you won't see 36-3800 fps. Figure 3,400 max for accuracy and brass life... After you play this long range game for awhile, you learn that speed and light bullets are great for the 500 yard and under stuff, but moderate speed and ballistically superior bullets will win the game at a distance every time. Played at 2,640 yards last weekend, and learned more about drift than I cared to know... [/QUOTE]
