[QUOTE="brian cameron, post: 299685, member: 19221"] I`m trying too find some info and I`m looking in to putting a rifle together around a wildcat ( 6.5-7mm dakota ). If anyone knows anything or something about this cartridge please email me at ( [EMAIL="retreadfred@yahoo.com"]retreadfred@yahoo.com[/EMAIL] ). The reason I`m looking in to it, it looks like it might fit into the Rem. titanium action which a .30-06 will fit, at total cartridge length of 3.35" . The dakota cartridge is a little bigger than the WSM cartridge`s and a little smaller than the RUM cases. The ( 7mm Ultra mag.) case looks to be about the same size capacity as the case for John Lazzeroni`s big ( 6.71 blackbird ). The ( 6.5 STW ) built by Layne Simpson ( one of the best hunting gun writers ) uses the ( 375 h&h ) magnum sized 3.65" action which is alright but I`m trying to go small and light for an easy carry rifle for sheep. I`m 51 now and not getting any younger so I`m going light.......LOL......Please email me if you know anything about the ( 6.5mm Dakota ).......Thanks........BRIAN [/QUOTE]
