[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 734196, member: 29890"] The new 6mm 105grn berger hybrid has a .547g1 bc and if you decide to reload I still vote for the model 12 f class just in 6br instead of 6.5x284 because the barrel will last 4 times as long, even though a barrel replacement on a savage can be done for <350$. You should also be able to get 3k+ fps with the 6br and 105s with a .015-.025" jam and reloader 17, I get 3030-3060fps from a 29" kreiger with berger 105s jammed, lapua brass, cci450s, and 34.5grns of RE17, the rifle does quite well at 1k yrds and I bought it from a fellow lrh member. The reason for the swing in velocity is due to outside temp. Last time it was shot at 1k I put 8 rounds in under a 5" group but I messed up twice with 2 high right flyers for a 10.1" group, busted three clays in the sighter session though, I'm shocked and also very impressed with the power, velocity, efficiency, and especially the accuracy of a 6br, and all in a round that is about 2 3/8" long when loaded to be in the lands.
