Default RE: Short or Long Action-6mm rifle project...

Thanks RR. I checked with Berger and they recommend a 1/12 twist for the 80gr. bullet, so the 85gr. TSX should shoot just fine too. Those would be my two bullets I would use the most, the VLD's I was just thinking would be fun to try out, but Iwouldn't use them regularly. I will just buy an unchambered barrel (from whoever I end up going with) and then send it to Kampfeld Customs to get fitted and chambered. The only reason I started looking at the carbon barrels from Magnum Research was because of the price. After I get a blank barrel from Pac-Nor, then flute it, and get it coated, it would only be like $150 more to get a carbon barrel (which I have always wanted).
