[QUOTE="huntinfool18, post: 163683, member: 6258"] Why is brass selection such an important factor? look at all the cartridges that lapua and norma dont make brass for and still shoot just as good if not better than the ones that they do make it for. as sombody already mention cost. if you go with lapua or norma brass that defeats your perpose. the only problem i see with the 6mm for varmiting is how many wounded animals are you going to have? whats the retained energy of the 6x284 @1000 with 105 VLD??? my vote also goes for the 338 edge. or some other accurate magnum. put a good break on it and your good to go. plus you know you will get the "red mist factor" and put them down for good with a less percentage of run offs. huntinfool18 [/QUOTE]
