[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 384181, member: 20245"] The ones you mentioned are quite barrel burners, i have been contemplating my first varmint rig too. I'm pretty set on a 6mmBR. A 107 SMK at 3000fps with 2500+ rnds of barrel life and bullets costig $26/100? Sounds like a sweet gun to me! As for your parts choices, all good stuff, mcmillian stocks have long waits unless you can find one in stock somewhere, maybe look at some others. All the top barrel makers make good stuff, go with what your gunsmith recommends. Also, make sure you get good optics!! A rifle like this is no good with a Simmons scope. Get good bases and rings too. One last bit if advice, put a few hundred aside for amenities such as bipods and reloading gear other than the obvious (dies, shellplate, etc) these costs really creep up on you. Better to factor them in from the start when your contemplating if you can afford the build. [/QUOTE]
