6mm Rem coal w/ 100 gr Partitions

I found a couple 8 twist barrels already.

And I'll use the SAAMI spec reamer.

Now there is a different way of thinking that absolutely works!

100g Hornady flat base thinks it is a partition!

Huh?

100g Hornady flat base thinks it is a partition!

Again....huh?

Tough bullet, base of the bullet is crimped in to the core. Hard to get all the core to separate from the jacket. I am not sure that hornady makes this bullet anymore.

I think it's the interlock.

Interlocks are a good option. Decently accurate in my 257 bob and did great on whitetail. I have always used factory federal 100 gr partitions in my 6mm rem tho

I'm looking at putting together a 6mm Rem and don't plan or desire to shoot the super heavies (105s or 107s). Just a good deer hunting bullet such as the 95gr or 100 gr partitions.

I'd like to build it on a short action and was wondering if would work. What's the COAL with a 100gr partition or interlock?

I'm not totally sold on the short but have one in mind, otherwise I can build it off a Tikka action.

This a deer rifle, not a match rifle. Seat a bullet of your choice to the max your magazine will handle. Have the Smith who does your barrel throat it so the ogive of the bullet just gets tiny marks from the lands when chambered. It will probably shoot fine there but you can still seat it deeper in the case to find a sweet spot.

Great choice on the 6mm rem, like My ruger m77 been out shooting 6.5 cm with high bc bullets against my son in law out too a 500 yards
