[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 112378, member: 8947"] 87gr Vmax from a 6BR and 26" to 28" barrel is simply a hoot. I have plinked with mine on clay pigeons out past 750yds. Way less recoil, cost and barrel heat. If you get one with an 8 or 9 twist, you can always stuff 105/107gr match bullets and go out to 1000yds. I also shoot a 6.5 Mystic which is an improved and modified 260Rem. A great LR BR cartridge and certainly will do what you want and even moderate range deer hunting. Since I intend this to shoot match at 1000m, I want all the wind bucking I can get for the recoil/heat level. I would go with the 6BR for the sort of plinking you want. Ever consider a fast twist 223? That is a lot of fun too. Jerry [/QUOTE]
