[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 593709, member: 873"] Tweek With the '06 case or the 6mmAI case you will have to use the long action if you want a repeater. I have 243AI 1-9 twist and crank out the 105 A-max thru a 27" varmint sporter contour. It shot the 95VLD's into one hole but I had to slow them down to get there so I went to the 105's and never looked back. Better than 95vld velocity and groups are only .080 bigger. I'm using N-165 powder. Longest kill antelope buck 434 yards was trying for 800 yards but they were already shot at for 2 weeks and were just too closely grouped for 20+ Wy wind for that distance. Did the stalk thru a drainage ditch and 400+ was close enough. Took him with one shot DRT. As stated previously Lapua brass is nice and can take a beating. Watch your brass necks on these hot 6mm's.
