[QUOTE="demarpaint, post: 4563, member: 655"] Hi DC, First of all many thanks for taking the time to answer my posts. I am very impressed with all of your knowledge and your willingness to share it. At this time I am still in the thought phases of building my next rifle, and Ray Romain will be the one to build it. I was looking into the 6.5-06 Improved (a Wildcat...... Wildcat), and then you mentioned the 6.5-06 Gibbs. That put me back to the drawing board, I still have time so its not a problem. Is there much of a difference between the 2 cartridges? I don't mind the fire forming of the cases, I am looking for velocity and flat shooting. I am thinking of a 3 groove Lilja barrel, in 30" finished length 1:8 twist. Can I save a few $ and not use a muzzle break on this gun? Thanks again for all the help, Frank D BH thanks for the help, the planning phase is 1/2 the fun.
