New Build: 6BR/6BRX - Which barrel do I want

**Dennis** · 01-25-2011, 05:15 AM

I have a three screw target action and my stock!

I am building a 6BR or 6BRX

I plan on shooting 105's - 107's

What barrel do I want to put on my build, I will be punching paper at 600yds.

And most of all, what brand barrel?

28", 29", or 30" barrel

7, 8, or 9 twist barrel

Is the BRX worth the extra effort, which I don't mind!

Was your barrel chambered by Krieger or someone else?

Personally, I think you would be fine with the standard 6br since your only stretching it to 600yds. If its for the bench, might as well go long with the barrel. If I was punching paper in matches, I would go with one of the top barrel makers as in Brux, Kreiger, Bartlien, Rock Creek. I wouldn't hesitate to let Sinman do the barrel for me, and he can get you Brux and Rock Creek.
