6 BRA smith

[alan98]

I have a 308 with a trued Rem700 action and am thinking of trying the 6 BRA. I've shot enough 308 and I wouldn't have to do much to switch over. It's in a chassis that takes AI mags so it would be mag fed. I have a GAP 6 Dasher that runs flawless mag fed with the spacer in back of mag.

Just posting here to see who could chamber up a barrel for me. GAP takes way too long to get it back. Thinking of a Krieger barrel - what twist, and length is working best for these?

Thanks for any help

Run the same twist and length your running now. Velocity is on the same level.

Try Dave Tooley at Tooley Custom Rifles? Moon at Crescent Customs, Mark Gordon at Short Action Customs, Jon Addis at Area 419? There are a lot of good smiths out there.

Where you located?

Travis Steven TSCustoms or Alex Wheeler are both excellent

 

[R.Morehouse]

Get yourself a barrel and if you want, shoot me a PM. I am out N. of Pgh. Pa. You could drive out from Altoona and we could spin one up for you. I have a JGS with 100FB off a print from Wheeler. Could eyeball the action to see how true it is as well. Will need some notice.....The mentioned Smiths are Excellent.

Regards
Rick

I would talk to KW Precision

My first choice for barrels is Bartlein, 26" 1-7.5 twist is what I would use

Take a look at this for popular barrel specs in the prs/nrl
