Alright, I'm after a 6mmBR, i have to get a VLP..

1 in 8" 6BR barrel:

What head size do they use?
Would i buy a VLP in 308 and then change the barrel over?

Will i need to modify the ejector or action at all?

Cheers..

yes a 308 head size is what you need. The barrel in the link seems way over priced to me. Check out Northlander or sinarms.

That site is WAY overpriced you could even check midway. That barrel should be around $320 or so I would think

I'm wondering if the poster of the original message is outside the U.S.A.

Sorry fella's thought i had it in my Profile.. will change that now

Yeah I'm Australian and i could import a barrel but it's probably not worth the hassle..

Just need to get gun, barrel, nut wrench, vise blocks and headspace gauge and its done?
