nemasis243 Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I have been meaning to put a little something on here for a while about my 6MMBR but never got round to it. As a little project a few months ago I asked the advice of Dasherman regarding a mag fed 6MMBR ,he suggested I use a tikka 22-250 as they feed the BR round really well, I buy quite a few second hand rifles off a dealer North of the Border and after a phone call he told me he had a good second hand Tikka 595 in 22-250 which would be bang on the money for what I wanted, He sent it down to Dasherman and he did his magic on it, He put a 1-8 Pac-nor Stainless match barrel on ,screw cut it and did the trigger and also the inletting. It only took a couple of weeks from the initial phone call and having it back from proof. I have shot groups with it and have been very happy , the other day Dave (6MMBR) andmyself went out and i shot a group which was a little off , I put it down to the fact that it needed a clean. So today when I got up there was no wind and no sunshine, great to set the gun up , so went down to a place where I can get some tidy shots and set up the target I rezeroed the rifle at 100yrds, hole on hole Then moved out to 250yrds , got my range finder to get it bang on , did the calculations on the EXbal PDA and settled down to shoot a 5 shot group. I shot 4rounds and I that which promotes growth and vigour out on the 5th lads after the third I was bouncing inside ,I have never shot a group like that before. Heres a couple of pics that I took just to give you an idea of how it went. Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ess Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Well done Andy, I'm hoping to get my variation through in the next few weeks for a 6br, so I will be looking for something similar, if it groups like that I would be over the moon.

Guest varmartin Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nice shooting Andy. The 6mmBR is a lovely round, You and Dave seem to be having good luck with the 87vmax. Have you tried the 75 Vmax ? or 95 Berger VLD ? stoke them up with Reloader 15.......awesome. I have got some 105 VLD to try from a very good friend of mine ....I will post results at 500 yards when I can get a load developed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
