[QUOTE="oldpilot, post: 1895641, member: 87110"] I have just rebarreled my 6mm Remington, rem model 722, 26" barrel, 8 twist...previous barrel was 8.25 twist, shoots 75 gr hp with 46 gr H4831 less than .25 inch. New barrel same. Old barrel shot over 3000 rounds. I have shot deer, javelinas, coyotes, antelope, and one 6x elk with it. I used 100 gr sp on game animals. My Weatherby 240 is pretty much identical, just faster and harder hitting. I reload for both. Wish the Weatherby had a 26" barrel! [/QUOTE]
