6mm Build Taking Shape

[Jeremiah Johnson]

Picked up my Impact Action today. This thing is damn nice. Definitely a step up from my Defiance Tenacity on my deer rifle.

737R - Left handed

Choose the action that the pros use! We have been the most popular action in the Precision Rifle Series for the last 5 years. Impact shooters have won the last 6 golden bullets and have won more two day matches in the last three years than all other manufacturers combined. Don't settle for...

Just ordered the Foundation Genesis 2 (MG2) stock with Hawkins bottom metal.. Owner of Foundation is a lefty, so he had exactly what I wanted in stock.

Genesis 2 (MG2) - Foundation Stocks

The Foundation Genesis 2 is a hybrid combining the grip to trigger spacing of an Exodus with the fore end of our original Genesis stock. A wide fore end, great balance and flexible attachment mounting options make prone and positional shooting strong points for the Genesis 2. - Action or DBM...

Now on to barrels. 6 BR, 6BRA, GayTiger, Dasher are on the table. Any others that I should be looking at?

I know BR and GT are probably the easiest. But can use Lapua Brass with the BR, BRA and Dasher.

Looks like Alpha makes brass for the Gay Tiger and Dasher.

I have a Trigger Tech Diamond on my deer rifle and was thinking going with the same on this. Not sure what else I should look at.

It looks like I can find Dasher and GT barrels in stock. Any places I should look for prefits on the other calibers?

For myself, I have built 6mmBR, 243, and 6mmRem rifles in heavy and lightweight.
I like the 6mmBR lightweight the best on Rem700 SA, but I use it single shot... too short to feed.

Ordered yesterday. He already shipped my Dasher barrel. Also Proof Prefit Dasher was only $479

Ok here we go. Bought the parts for the start of this build. Went with 6 Dasher as I am impatient and found a barrel in stock. Really excited.
