6BR Reamer Dimensions

[ed0101]

I'm planning a 6BR build and need your advise. I'm sure the info is somewhere on the is forum but I cant seem to find what I'm looking for.
I have a Bartlein Light Palma 5R 1:10" twist barrel that I will use on an Remington XP action. Now from what Ive read the 1:10" will be suitable for 87gr V Max's and 90gr Scenars. The rifle will be used mainly for 300m prone shooting. What dimensions should I use for the throat when ordering the reamer and what is the optimum barrel length? I don't have the luxury of sending a dummy round because I live in South Africa.

Don't overlook the Berger 87 grain Hunting VLD or the Berger 90 grain BT. I shoot those two bullets with .085" FB.

I also shoot the BIB 95 FB some. It is a tad uncomfortable in that FB, needs .104".

Email your specs, wants and needs to Dave Kiff at PT&G. He'll fix you up with the correct reamer. I just built a .20 practical with one of his recommendations and it is scary accurate. Hog

P.S. I just got back from my first trip to RSA. Your gun laws are "brutal".
