Hello everyone, I am new to the site and it looks very interesting.
I am getting ready to build a new varmint rifle, however, I don't know what caliber I want to go with. I already have 223, 22-250 and a 6BR. I am pretty much covered for shots out to 500 yards, so I need something to reach the 800 to 1000 yard mark.
I am wanting something with some power. I am thinking about the 6x284. If I go with 6x284, I am thinking I want to use the 87grn V-max and 105grn A-Max. I am thinking about using a 1-10 twist. The 1-10 twist looks like it will stabilize both the 87 and 105grn bullet. Anybody out there using this cartridge, bullet, and barrel twist combo.
