Action for 6br and variant’s that function as repeater

[Phil]

Building a 6br, 6bra, 6dasher repeater, mag fed rifle, what actions should I be looking at for correct functionality???

I’ve been looking at the Kelbly Atlas, any others that function I should be looking at????

Hard to beat a Zermatt TL3... I have 7 of them and been shooting them since their initial release. I shoot 6BR and 22BR, 223rem, 308win, 6.5x47L, 6.5cm, 224V, and a few wildcats. You can shoot all those on the TL3 by simply swapping the bolt head and screwing on the barrel you want..

Feeds 6BR and variants smooth as butter.

Floating, Interchangeable Bolt Head
Controlled Round Feed
Enclosed Mechanical Ejector
Pinned Picatinny Rail
Bayonet Style Firing Pin Assembly
2 Lug. 90° Bolt Throw
Right or Left Hand Receivers
DLC Coated Bolt Heads
Black Nitride Finished Bolt Body

Zermatt, TL3 & Origin with the controlled round bolt heads are a couple but the aics mags with the BR kits are a big factor also.

This Remington 700 is a switch barrel in the following chamberings:

22 B-R

6mm B-R

25 B-R IMPROVED

7mm B-R

30 B-R

338 B-R IMPROVED

With thousands of rounds fired in each chambering, I have yet to have a single chambering, feeding or extraction issue!

4 rounds in the removable magazine and 1 in the chamber.

I ran a TL2 for my BR, Flawless.
I currently run a Atlas Tactical in my 6BRA.
I would spec out a bolt with a plunger ejector if you go that Route. Kelbly's for me.

Impact 737 is another option. High quality prefits are readily available.

I have 6 TL3 repeaters and 4 single shot TL3s. They work great with .221, .222, .223, 6 PPC, 6 BR, 6 BRA, 6 ARC, and 308. I use MDT mags for the repeaters.

I have 7 TL3's and 1 TL3 single shot. Love them all zero complaints.

I run the MDT BR metal mags in my TL3's butter smooth....no AICS and mag kits for me.

No mag kits with MDT metal BR mags. They are excellent

What mag set up is it ? Looks fairly flush, great looking setup.

 

[gsxr1k]

Defiance tenacity and mdt 12 rd mags. Feeds 6BR flawlessly.

 

[urbanrifleman]

Kauger CRS and Kauger Viper.

What mag set up is it ? Looks fairly flush, great looking setup.

These magazines are from H-S Precision.

Small belly on the magazine bottom.

Thank you.

Yes I have of them as well

 

[CamoWhamo]

I run a Kelbly Prometheus in straight 6BR, and before that an Atlas Tactical in 6mm BRA.
Both actions have the AW mag cut and I run them with AW mags fitted with the HRD spacer kit.

The rifles cycle very well with this combination. I have not needed to modify the magazines or magazine catch on any stock or chassis that I have used them in.
I have however had to mill clearance for the trigger hanger and wide deep recoil lug on occasion so keep that in mind with the Kelblys.

As mentioned center feed (HS Precision) or controlled round feeding is the way to go for flawless feeding with the 6BR family. This round can be a pain to feed if you don't start with a solid plan and want a repeater. Been there and done that, and it is not fun. Good shooting too you.

I’ve had a 6br project spinning around in my head for a while. A Howa mini based gun.

 

[Phil]

My plan is to use the MDT magazines with this project

 

[Skattergun]

I use a mdt Acc elite chassis with a defiance deviant, mdt mags work well. I also use a manners stock with hunter m5 bottom metal and use mdt mags as well as Hawkins flush mag with spacer kit. Both feed well both straight 6br

The ARC Nucleus is another action with MDT 6br mags.
