[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 283786, member: 12"] If you are shooting fox, pretty sure that you do not want a 105 or a 115 bullet. My guess is you you will be in the 75-87 gr range. With said, the standard 6x47 will run a 105gr at 3200 fps easily so the 75-87 grainers would be in the 3400 plus range, so do not see the need for an AI version considering cost with minimal gain as there are stock 6x47 dies. All you need to do is order the reamer with the correct freebore for the bullet weight you want to use. I shoot the 6mmBRDX (BR Ack Imp with long neck) and it can run the 87 gr 3200 plus. I can run 105s at 3130. I do not like the short neck Dashers, and BRX type cases. I prefer the long necks, but no stock factory dies. Mine are custom from Neil Jones ($300 for custom FL size die w/shoulder bump bushings and micro seater) To me depends on whether you want the hassle of custom dies or not. If the answer is no, then straight Dasher, BRX or standard 6x47. All of them are going to be way faster than needed. I would lean towards the standard 6x47. BH [/QUOTE]
