help with dasher barrel contour

[Frankr]

well my 6BR build is getting close to done(few months yet).
my mind is working on a 6 dasher build...thought just as a varmit rifle. but my short range HV rig is actually my varmit rifle so i see no reason my 6 dasher( what ever )rifle could not double as a varmit rifle.
I realize that i have no idea what i would be building a 6 dasher for.....what i mean by that is 600yrd, 1,000yrd,
F-class ? im fairly knowlegable with short range sporter,LV,HV...but know nothing about 600/1,000 or F-class stuff.
so was thinking about getting a barrel ordered in the next month or so and really have no idea what contour/weigh or length barrel to order..?
what weight rifle would i be shooting for that would give a chance to shoot different class's?
what ideas work for actions, barrel contour's, stocks .. ? (im not a big fan of long range stocks)
could use some ideas .

I use a Pennsylvania Taper on all of my Light Guns. 1.250” Straight for 6” Tapered to .940” @ 30”. I have the barrels finished at 31”. I like the Shehane MBR stock. The Shehane or the Tooley MBR with the barrel contour above will come in under 17#using Aluminum Rings and a 42X NF BR scope. My newest rifle I use in F-Class has a 1.250” Straight for 7” tapered to 1.000” @ 31” weighed on 16.5# with a Remington 700SA in a Shehane MBR. I did add some lead to get it up to 21.5#. But it can only be used for F-Class and IBS Heavy Gun. The Krieger contour equivalent to the PA is a modified MTU with the measurements specified to match the PA. Just shoot for 16 lbs. 14 oz. scoped. That will let you shoot 600 yard LG & HG plus F-Class open.

If you are looking for a barrel I have a number of new barrel blanks in inventory that would be ideal for a Dasher build up:

Bartlein Heavy Varmint contour 31" blank .237" x .243" bore 5R stainless 1:8" twist
Bartlein Heavy Varmint contour 31" blank .236" x .243" bore 5R stainless 1:8" twist
Bartlein Heavy Varmint Contour but 1.150" dia. at muzzle, 29" blank .236" x .243" bore 5R stainless 1:8" twist
Brux Heavy Varmint Contour 31" blank 1:8" twist conventional 4 groove stainless

I have never see that PA contour listed?
