6br norma headspace?

Does the 6mm br have the same headspace?,.004) as other rifles? Or is it tighter like .002? I was just wondering if a tighter headspace will make any rifle shoot better.

Hi for all my target rifles and rebarreled hunting rifles they adjusted on the GO guage with zero excess headspace i do not have a Go nad NO-Go tolerence all are fitted for feel on the Go guage. This is the best way to set up a new barrel the tolerence is only there so factorys have a safe level to work to if you have a NO-GO guage when it will close on it with feel it still requires 4 thou to be taken off. The guages are good to check a factory rifle or a seccondhand rifle if the Go is 1 thou off the NO-Go will not close in the chamber so it is safe but if you have feel on a GO guage you dont require any other guage.
