New 6ppc

[articfoxhunter 0]

Hey,

I want to put together a 6ppc and I am stuk between Sako and Remington action to use for the task.

The rifle is to be used for foxcontrol and targertshooting so I´m going to use a hevy barrel from Shilen or Krieger.

Can I use standard 222 or 223 for this if I open up the boltface.

thanks

super accurate from what i have seen of others on different sites. there is a lad from a different site thats has one and his groups are superb. wouldnt it be easier to use a 22/250 action or 243. wouldnt have to worry about the botl face then.

 

as for the action speak to your gunsmith. i no remmy actions are ripe for bblueprinting. but alot of people build on sako actions. as there very good from the off.

 

you are better off asking on one of those sites if no one on here has one.

i'm not sure about the bolt face issue to be honest... but regards the two actions, When i rebuilt the rifle, the smiths said that nearly all remmington actions will need blueprinting, the older model tikkas and the sako actions where nearly all fairly true

 

and if for a general hunting gun targets etc , unless your serious about competition shooting, will not need trued at all...

 

that said the remmington is a strong action, just depends on your budget....

 

 

i know SYSS take in all actions and ture them up... Worth giving them a call, the price may surprise you and you'd be better of selling your own rifle...

 

 

 

Snap.
