[QUOTE="PartsJr., post: 2054978, member: 87242"] I am trying to narrow my selection down and am wondering what you would do and why? I have a NEW (given to me by a friend) heavy 17 contour 29” 6mm 1:7.5 twist 5R Bartlien barrel waiting on a future build. It will go on a 700 trued short action. It doesn’t have to be a repeater and would consider running it as a single shot which would allow a couple of the slightly longer cartridges I mention below. The gun will be a LOW volume varmint gun (coyote, prairie dogs at long range) with the possibility of setting up in an elevated box stand for the occasional white tail. I would like to get 2000 rounds out of it. The cartridges I’m considering: 6mm Creedmoore .243 AI 6mm REM AI 6mmx.284 Thanks for your input. [/QUOTE]
