If I ever get into wildcatting and custom to semi-custom builds one of my first pursuits will be a "big 6" of some kind. 6mm-06, 6-06ai, 240 Gibbs, 6-6.5 rpm, .240 incinerator/6mm Mach 4 (7mm rem mag parent), 6mm wsm, 6-6.5 prc....lots of possibilities. Something bigger than a .240 wby or 6-284.
It seems like this is conspicuously among the only bore diameters that don't have any truly "stupidly overbore" representatives emerging among commercial offerings. (Give the Wikipedia article on the .244 hh magnum a read, a hotrod before
Hot rods were cool).
Why is that? What do you think?
Also, am I alone in thinking, practicality be left behind, a 6mm-6.5 weatherby rpm is especially intriguing?
