[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 699952, member: 25383"] The 6mm Rem. will work in a Remington 700 short action, but will be a complete pain to shoot as the actions just too short for the 57mm case length. A Mod. 70 is a little longer, and the Savage is about .150" longer and is still a little on the short side with 90 grain and bigger bullets.A long action Remington or a Savage would be my first choice. Might also want to look at the .257 Roberts improved (there are several). Forster stocks .257AI dies without having to pay the premium. Plus the .257 Roberts is one fine deer round, but once again not really good for elk. There's also a 6.5x57 AI that's a very good round. gary [/QUOTE]
