+1....The 6br is super accurate and easiest cartridge to get data for. The 6ppc and 6brx are great but it takes a lot of time to load. Another great but overlooked round is the 243 win and in most cases has better ballistics and less wind drift then most rounds used for competition. Go to http://www.6mmbr.com/index.html for ideas on rifles and cartridges to get yourself better informed.
