[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 147284, member: 2852"] [b]Re: Too Many 6mm\'s To Choose From[/b] The 6ppc is a little small to shoot 105 grain bullets but there are a few guys using it with good results but they admit the 6br will do better. To me, for the ranges you mentioned, there is only one 6mm. The 6mmbr with an 8 twist barrel. Forget shooting light bullets out of a barrel burning beast like the 6-284. My puny 6br has never been outshot by a 6-284 at 1000 yards and those are the ones shooting high bc bullets. Nevermind the light bullets. If you must burn more than 32 grains of powder, look at the 6xc or the 6x47 Lapua. Trust me on this one. The hotrods are fun to brag about, but they are more finicky, more temperamental, and usually less accurate. When someone brags to me about how fast their 6mm fire breathing dragon is, I just shrug and show them a 5" 1000 yard 6br group and the smile on their face fades in a hurry! [/QUOTE]
