OK, I'm back
After a pretty hectic separation/divorce proceeding, have managed to keep my prized posessions I did give her the house so I am homeless, but getting things straightened out, have my reloading press set back up and started loading some much needed ammo. you guys will once again be hearing from me. got a long range shoot coming up, not much prizes but bragging rights to blowing up huge amounts of tannerite. more later.

Glad you made it through, and know that brighter days are ahead. I also had that experience long ago and life got vastly better afterward.
Now down to business! What are your thoughts on building a light hunting rifle in 6mm for medium game? I toyed with the idea of using the 6 Creed, but a 243 Win. is likely easier to live with. Years ago I built a couple of BR rifles to shoot the 243 Win and got my backside handed to me on a regular basis, so I am just a bit uneasy with the 243.

Always wanted a 6mm AI, prolly the route I would go. 300 fps over the 243, better case life, and longer neck for a bit better accuracy, however to make it all it can be ya should use a long action.
