How do you think the 6BR will be for deer hunting
compared to the standard 6 mm.....What distance
and bullet do you think would be the best choice?:biggrin-new:
fORGOT TO ASK---what savage action,should I use
so the ammo will work in the magazine or clip..?
I use a 6brx in a 15 3/4" striker. 105 amax at 2700 does a great gob on deer. You should be able to get that speed from a standard be with a rifle barrel. As for feeding I load single on a follower.
Savage made a 6BR DBM rifle ; of course it is a 4.4 SA ; the mag boxes and followers are identical (to my eyes) to the 223 except the mag box lips are spread out a bit.
If you search there are still 6BR DBM mags out there for sale but maybe not for long as I think Savage has discontinued them ? These have a silver base plate.
You should be able to do a ADL style setup by buying the box and follower from the Savage store.
Sorry to ask but what's the follower?
that would be a fish that follows a lure but wont strike.Quote:
