Nothing beats a 6PPC from the bench.

6ppc....13.5t.....63 to 68g bt.....

My 6 Dasher will put them in there with a 103 custom I use, but it won't stay with the PPC in the long run.

Shooting for score or group?? 30BR will be better for score shooting like IBS 100, 200, and 300.

6PPC likely better if shooting for itty bitty groups for that discipline

For group shooting the 6PPC with 1 - 13.5 tw. would probably work best with 68 gr. class bullets. For score the 30BR with 1 - 17 tw. would be a great choice with lighter weight bullets like 108 - 118 gr. class.

What size 5 shot groups are you looking for to be competitive in your caliber of choice?

I need to shoot under 1 1/2" at 300 to be competitive at our club matches

The 6BR with a 8 twist barrel shooting 103/109 grain bullets is the easy button.

Depends on how involved you plan to get overall, in starting out.
As rwj put it......6BR, is the easy button for club shooting.

I'll make the popcorn!!

Overall, just one rifle for both Group and Score.

6PPC shooting any of the fine 65 thru 68 grain Boat Tails available out of a 13.5 twist barrel.

Under 1.5" @ 300yd can just go 6BR... shit my 22BR does that easily at 400yd with 80smk


22BR 80smk @ 400yd - just under 0.75"
