I have a 6.5x 47 now and another being built at the moment. I'll be receiving my Stiller Tac30A/W with .308 bolt face in the next day or so. I also have a Manners T4 for it. I'm having trouble figuring out what caliber to make it. I have a Krieger 6.5 8tw barrel and a Rock Creek 30 cal 11.25tw barrel in my shop. Would I be wasting money on dies and brass if I had a 6.5 Creedmoor built since they are pretty much the same. What would you build on this action and stock? I've thought about making it a .308 with the barrel I have, but I hardly shoot my .308 that I have now since I got the x47 barrel for my Savage. Maybe something in 7mm? This rifle will be used for steel on my personal range that goes out to 1000 yards.
Thanks for your input.
