[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 113623, member: 10"] JDJones, Remember he is using a Rem 700 Long Action. These will accept an OAL of 3.700" in most cases. Figuring that the 6-06 case is roughly 2.495" in length that would leave 1.2" of bullet length hanging out the front of the bullet. I do not thing he would have any trouble seating any 6mm bullet out as far as he wanted in a 6-06 in the Rem 700 Long Action. Your 6.5-06 is also a great recommendation as well. Another great one which I like even more then the 6.5-06 is the 25-06 loaded in a fast twist barrel with the Wildcat 142 gr ULD RBBT. Will do anything the 6.5mm 140s will do but with a bit higher BC and SD. Limited list of bullets to use though in 25 cal. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
