Factory/Production Rifles

[Webphut]

First off I am not, nor was I ever, a competitive shooter. I aspired to shoot as good as the big dogs, but I accepted long ago I lacked the time to invest in growing my potential to be able to shoot along side them.

I had a 6mm Norma BR savage precision rifle. I bought this to replace my Sako 6 PPC. I lost interest in the 6 PPC more so due to the time constraints of real life outside of a husbands and fathers hobbies. I thought the 6 Norma BR might be a good replacement that required less time. The savage model I had was the model with the parallel flat on the bottom of the butt stock, I want to think it was the F class model. Anyhow, I came to actually love the cartridge!

I am not going to go into a long drawn out explanation of why, but I was not happy with the savage 6br norma rifle. Now I have to say that the rifle is beautiful! I just found some things that physically when put in my personal hands, I found a dislike to. I am positive alot and in fact i will say most folks who don't shoot competitively or aspire to shoot as good as a sponsored shooter, will love the rifle. I think I got the point across,, but for all I know there may very well be no sponsored shooters.

With that, who else makes a commercially available rifle in 6 Norma BR or 6BR Norma (I am not sure of the correct word order in the name)....?

I have a Cooper model 22 in 6BR, LOVE that rifle!
Maybe see if you can find one for sale?
Best of luck with your search

If not Savage then you are probably 'stuck' with a custom. Quite a few out there who will build you a rifle. Just costs a bit more.

If you choose a chassis or stock with bedding block/pillars (eg HS Precision, MDT, Hogue, McMillan, etc), all you really need is someone to fit the barrel to the action, which most barrel makers will do. Choose your action, trigger, barrel and stock. Send out the action/trigger and have the barrel fitted. Bolt it into the stock.

Might be helpful to tell exactly what you did not like. But lots of older used br rifles floating around. I see most go 1700.00 to 2500.00. Buy one, shoot it for a year and if your so inlined at that time put a new barrel on it. You will then have half the price of a new one and it will be competitive if it's Indian is.
