[QUOTE="Nimrod, post: 593686, member: 6327"] I have used several of the 6mm rounds from the 6mm Mach4 on down. The 6/06 and 6MM AI along with the 6mm-.284 and the .240 Weatherby are all in the same ballpark. I was able to better the Weatherby ballistics with the 6mm/06 by about 100 fps. with 100 grain bullets. To be fair my current hot 6 project (6mm-.284) only has a 17" barrel so the velocities are not what they could be with a longer tube. All of the ones I have used were very accurate and most were easy to load for. If I had to choose one it would be the 6mm/06 in a long action or the 6mm-.284 in a short action. Bob [/QUOTE]
