[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 521173, member: 2736"] I would go with the 6mm Rem also because you are familiar with it and have all the stuff to reload it. If you intend to shoot the 105+ bullet weights you will need to increase the twist rate.(The old factory barrels had a 1 in 12 twist and that is what killed there popularity compared to the 243 Wins 1 in 10 twist. I would recomend a 1 in 8 twist that would allow you to shoot any bullet weight without over rotating lighter bullets. A quality barrel like a Lilja Stainless will also help the velocity and cleaning. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
