I struck gold!

[sierracharlie338]

Well gold to me anyway.

Recently while going through some stashed reloading equipment, I came across a box of what I thought was a case of 9mm ammo. Turns out it was 1200 of the original 105 Amaxs!! I love me some 6mm rifles mainly because that's what I started hunting with.

Now the question becomes, do I use the 6 creedmoor build that I'm in the process of putting together for my wife or do I start a new one?

Second question, if you were going to build a 6mm, what cartridge would you pick and why (although you don't really need to list a reason).

Let's hear it

.243 AI because why not? Or a real hot rod 6mm-06AI

Good find!
1. Just use them in your wife's rifle unless you want another 6mm.
2. Depends on what you want to use it for. Target or Hunting?

I think I'm gonna leave her with all the factory ammo and it's looking heavily like I'm about to start another build lol. What 6mm would YOU build if you wanted.

I can't bring myself to own a CM that is actually mine. The wife is getting one because if I'm ever not around she need factory ammo availability. She shoots quite well!

The 6 Grendel is high on my list as I own the big brother and love it.

 

[just_jon]

The one with the most reliable supply of quality brass.

 

[Calvin45]

Do a 6-284 or 6-6.5prc

Are you in barrel sales now?

 

[Creedmoor shooter]

For me it's 6 creed. It's just the easy button. Brass is everywhere. Decent velocity, not horrible barrel life, low recoil, and fairly easy to load for. I'm on my 3rd 6 creed barrel if that tells you anything. It's my favorite of the creed cases.

I did a .243 LBC (6mm Grendel) on a Howa mini and it shoots pretty well.

 

[Huntnful]

I have a 6 PRC. Necked down 6.5 PRC and it's pretty sweet. Super simple wild cat with lapua brass.

 

[Jjlo63]

6mmbr loves the 105's and it is so cool. If you don't do that I'd go 243
