    Whats the optimal freebore for a 6mm Creedmore?

    What's the optimal freebore for a 6mm creedmore? I'm planning to use 103 ELDX, 108 ELDM, something in that general weight class. I'm planning to handload but don't want to limit case capacity or end up in pressure problems. Sammi is .183" PTG recommended. 130" What are you guys finding works...

    Looking for 2-3 worn out 6mm bore (.243) barrels.

    I have a new chamber reamer coming, and rather than burying it in a brand new $800 barrel right off the rip, I need to cut a new test chamber. Looking for heavy profile 26" non carbon fiber barrels. Stainless, etc, doesn't matter.

    Gunsmithing 1/2-28 on a 7mm .284" ?

    I had a barrel dealer recommend a 1/2"-28 muzzle thread for a sporter weight 7mm barrel. By my calculations that would leave a thin profile from bore to root of the thread at .109" seems a bit thin for my comfort level. Anybody have any guidance on this? I think it should be a 5/8" 24. Thanks
