[QUOTE="LouBoyd, post: 282302, member: 9253"] Every rifle is a tradeoff of: weight accuracy ammo availability barrel life recoil peer acceptance portability personal pleasure cost and a few other things. I think you're wrong that a 6mm Rem and a 6mm-06 have similar performace. Compare case capacity of some 6mm cartridges: 6mm PPC 32 grains 6mm BR 37 grains 243 Win 54 grains 6mm Rem 55 grains 6mm-284 67 grains 6mm-06 67 grains A 6mm-06 will give higher velocity and flatter trajectory than a 6mm Rem It will also have shorter barrel life and more recoil. What does "better" mean to you? [/QUOTE]
