Sherlock Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 300-500 yrds range - minimal recoil - no fuss in loading -- your describing a 6 mmBR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhhudson Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 I thought about a 6mm br but iv heard people have trouble with feeding due to the sharp neck angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherlock Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 They will feed from a mag. I had one that did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxnyCGzs1ok 6.5 x 47 is a cracking calibre - but will have more recoil and more expensive to run.
