[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 484677, member: 10"] Not sure on the specs of the 6mmHLS. My reamer is speced simply as a 22-250 necked up to 6mm with no other changes at all. Very similiar to the old 6mm International I believe but I also believe that wildcat was based on a 250 Savage case so the neck thickness may be larger diameter, not sure. The BR and PPC cases are quite impressive that is for sure. I have been going back and forth on several, the 6mm BR, Dasher and 6-250. I just really do not like fireforming for a high volume shooter. The BR has better brass but its a bit harder to get and costs more. Not a big issue. In the end, its really a moot point, do not have time to build myself a rifle before varmint season anyway!! I have only shot the Varmint Grenades on three occasions, all in 224 cal, 218 Mashurn bee where they shot extremely well. Tried them in a 223 Rem AI and got so-so results. Tried them in a 22-250 AI and accuracy was terrible. Seems they are much better suited for the moderate velocity chamberings. Will be interested to hear your results with your 6mm and how they shoot in it. [/QUOTE]
