Any 6xc shooters out there?

[abishai]

My freebore is right at an eighth inch. I only checked it after I let someone borrow my reamer
and they complained about it. The 115 Dtac, 87 vmax, 107 SMK, 105 Hybrid all
shot under a quarter .

Isn't that how it goes? Hahaha

Do what you have to do to make it fit, but I wouldn't go that route myself. If you really need to fit in a mag, go with a shorter case and the proper freebore (~.150 for heavy 6s, depending on the case). Beyond the greater capacity, the longer freebore allows you to seat long bullets ahead of the shoulder-neck junction. That can save you a lot of aggravation with donuts. Trying to use a short freebore with the XC kind of defeats the purpose of the XC. (Which is an awesome case by the way - mine is a dream to load for and shoots everything I put through it well).

Yes!! I just need to get some mags that have a longer internal measurement, but I have quite a bit of shooting to do before I run out of mag space! Accurate mags has option of with or without binder plate. Hopefully wont interfere with the feed ramp but there is a fix for that!

Do not change the reamer! I've shot over 15,000 rounds in PRS comps through my 6XC and the TUBB reamer shoots 105-115's perfectly...I just haven't tried anything lighter

Imagine that.

Imagine that.

Imagine someone fielding advice from actual competitive shooters

This is a first one for me: Today I loaded up 20 rds in increments of 20, 60, 70, 80 tho. Shot em and they ALL made one hole .25-.30 moa off a shitty rest. That makes 50 rounds thru my new barrel after these 20. A jump tolerant cartridge/chamber..how cool!
