I want a 6 BR of some variety...

[DIBBS]

to use for informal long range target shooting, some varmint hunting, and probably some group shooting as well. I know that this subject has probably been discussed many times, but here are some of the parameters

SUPERB ACCCURACY

Ability to shoot accurately at long distance,1K),informally).

Am guessing I probably need to look at an 8 twist barrel, and probably a custom action based on the two requirements above.

Also would like a varmint width forearm, not BR width.

Would like to be able to shoot 68-107 grain bullets...accurately ..<.5 moa and hopefully much smaller @ short range,1-300 yards) [doable with a 8 twist??]

LONG barrel life


Which cartridge...standard 6BR or one of the improved versions

Almost forgot Rings, bases, & Optics too.

Lets hear your advice, suggestions, & ideas:thumb:.

Thanks

Just add a 20 MOA base to the above formula so you have no trouble reaching 1k such as a Ken Ferrell 20 MOA base

Of course you'll be using a Nightforce scope on your rifle, correct.
May as well use a $40.00 tapered base from EGW on it while your at it too..
