[QUOTE="Dog Downs, post: 1914622, member: 114491"] Hi All thank you for your replies, unfortunately the ITAR rules have stopped us from buying parts out of the US websites as individuals and forced us to buy products that are brought in by dealers who can be expensive and lack variety. Guns are expensive here. ITAR for Aus is silly for two reasons the first being Aus has very strict gun rules and also the fact that Aus always comes and helps US whenever the shooting starts. We want to buy your guns mate and support US Aus trade, send some troops as well please. elkaholic I have since had a very close look at the Sherman website at all the prices and what is available. As I thought the brass will be the issue. The machining tools and the dies etc are just tools and are treated as such when importing. To tell the truth I have been thinking about a firearms or related business for some time now with a web presence. I have recently taken a redundancy due covid 19 and now have the time to play with the idea. The 6SST has the potential to be a very popular bench rest cartridge and if it feeds reliably a hunting cartridge as well. If it can function as both it will be better to survive here. What magazines are you using just 308 size? What are the bolt face specs? I am going to start putting this together to build a gun and test this round. I will need to talk to my Smith also and find out what he wants as well. Hopefully I can get the cartridge to perform and try to generate some interest in the chambering at some competitions, just reading the numbers and looking the dimensions I think 6SST has some real potential. If not I will just enjoy the the dog hunt with an insane 6mm. I have sent an email to the Sherman website to find out more. Thanks Dogga [/QUOTE]
