[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 479266, member: 25383"] you could brobably cut a half inch off the big end and rechamber. There are a couple wildcats that are slightly shorter than the basic 6/.284, and these have a much better barrel life will a very slight loss in velocity. The 6/.284-.100" short is the ticket. Guys I know shooting this round say they might loose 50 fps max, and with a longer neck they are seeing almost double the barrel life. The chamber can be reamed off a generic 6/284 reamer or better yet have one ground with a longer neck (.330"). I also know a couple guys shooting a 6/284-.150" (at the shoulder), and these guys are saying the see about a 75 fps loss with Berger 88's. But with much better groups. I probably would also cut a half inch off the muzzel at the sametime I rechambered. gary [/QUOTE]
