I stopped in at the gun shop today. The owner is a good friend of mine, and wanted to show me something. He informs me, "have I got a deal for you." He then pulled out a Ruger M77 MkII target rifle. It is chambered in 6mm PPC. He has the rifle, rings, reloading dies, and 200 empties. It also has an aetec scope on it. He will sell it all to me for $500.

The info I have found looks pretty good. It can push a 75 gr bullet at 3200 fps. Should I buy this, or keep looking for another 6mm? Shots will be kept under 300 yards, and will be used on yotes. I have never used any 6mm rounds, so I have these questions on them. From what I can tell, it is a great price. But I have never really heard anything on the PPC cartridges. Only that they are used by benchrest shooters, and are based on the 220 Russian. I don't even know how hard it is to find brass for it.

My reasoning for the 6mm is, it gets awfully windy out here in the afternoon. And those 22 slugs get thrown around a lot. Just looking for something to work a little better. Thanks.
