6XC or 6x47 Lapua?

[Erik Cortina]

I've always heard that called a Texas Heart Shot.

Yes, Texas heart shot.

ducks-and-bucks said: I'm going to do a rebarrel on a repeater sako action, mag fed. It's a sako model 85 varminter to be exact. No bench gun, just something nice and easy for the fiance to shoot that wont beat her up, use it for deer out to 250 yards/coyotes out how ever far I can hit em.... then nice prone style long range ringing steel and target shooting.... I'm only considering these two after narrowing down what I like from efficiency and quality components...

I plan to shoot 105 gr bullets from this gun...

I don't have any experience with either one of these rounds.

6XC or 6X47? 8 twist 26 inch remington varmint contour?

I started out to build a 6XC but then learned about the 6CM (Competition Match) which is a .243 with a 31 degree shoulder. It does everything that a 6XC can do and more. The extra case capacity enables you to burn slow powder and that seriously extends barrel life.

Here's a pdf for you to read that is very eye opening
