[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 2328301, member: 13732"] An idea I've had for some time, set a 6mm creed chamber to a tight fit on a 260/243 go gauge. Turn high end 260 brass to 0.014", Neck down to 243 just enough to close bolt with some resistance and then fireform. It'd be essentially a 30° improved that you could still use your creed dies for. The 260 parent case will have close to enough neck length to fill up the creed without leaving a big void for carbon accumulation. I recently acquired a ruger American 6cm. Gonna shoot it for a while and see how I like the case, I already shoot 22,25 and 6.5cm so I'm sure the 6 will work well. It just seemed about the perfect 300y and in spotlight/truck gun with thr 22" threaded barrel for my supressor. Freebore is MUCH shorter than saami so I need to throat it a bit to get all the factory ammo off jam. [/QUOTE]
