Well I finally got it together rem 700 action gaillard heavy varmint 1-8 twist in 6 br and my homemade stock bedded and steel pillars.
I might be able to shoot it saturday at the shoot if it dont rain again I swear it has been raining here for a month.

I was at the range today and worked up a few loads seems to like varget and H 4895 now I need to bring my chrono out to find out what speed I am getting and fine tune the oal.

what bullet are you shooting?

I was shooting some 90gr lapua scenars that's all I have on hand for now I want to try some berger 105's and some sierra smk 107's .

Now that I got some brass fireformed I am going to head back to the range tonight and try a few more with a different oal .
 
I have a Savage heavy barrel and it likes 105-107 grain berger and A max with 28 grains of Varget. It seems to be sensitive to OAL, I am waiting for a calm day to do some research.
 
@coyote came by the RNBRA shooting this weekend with his rifle, I can confirm that it is as good looking in person as it is in the photo. He also took us on a tour of his gun club, St. Gabriel Precision Shooting Club and all I can say is wow!, what a gorgeous 600m range that is.
 
Thank you for the compliments Daniel I am looking forward to shooting with you guys again , we will try and make it to gagetown for sundays shoot.

Daniel that electronic target you have is the best [for those of you who have not seen them please look in to it you will be in awwww] hoping to be able to get one in the near future.

I need to work out my serious brass issue the casing necks have no runout after firing and I get between .003-.007 of runout on the necks once I run them through the bushing die .
I thought my die was toast so my friend ran them through his wilson bushing die with the same results.

I have now annealed about 10 cases fireformed them yesterday and ended up with similar results ,maybe someone with more experience with the 6br could steer me in a better direction.
