Anyone know of a 6br

[BULLET 05]

For sale??? Looking for a 10 or a 12 twist. Mainly going to shoot paper or occasional ground hog.

How much are you looking to spend? I'm sure if you looked through the classifieds on here you would fine one.

Savage currently offers three models in 6BR, and are in the $1600 range list. They are all 8 twist and optimized for the heavier 6mm bullets, not the short range benchrest bullets in 60-70 grain range. I have the LRPV model and it is a 12 twist that is no longer offered. It shoots quite well, and I only have a couple of complaints. The throat is too long for a 12 twist barrel. It seems that Savage must have used the same long throat reamer on both the 8 twist and 12 twist. And in retrospect the 12F Class seems like a better stock for shooting off the bench. I do enjoy using the right bolt and left eject action though. Very convenient on the bench. See this link for Savage models available.

So my advice is, whether you go to a custom, or a factory Savage to watch the twist and throat combination to ensure it is suitable for the bullets you plan to shoot.

I have looked on there. One that is close to what I am looking for but it has a scope. I may ask him if he would separate.

About 3 years ago I decided to build a target/varmint rig and did it myself. When I got through it I really enjoyed it and have a good rig. Start with a savage action, I started with a 110 in 270 Win.
