I recently inherited a 6x284 that my grandad built back in the ‘80s. I know almost nothing about this rifle other than it’s never been fired and it’s built on a Mauser action. I measured my twist rate earlier today to be 1:13.
I would like this to be a deer rifle that bridges the gap between my .223 and .308, but with that slow of a twist rate, is that goal realistic or am I looking at another super hot varmint gun? What bullet weights would y’all recommend for this caliber/twist rate?
Thanks in advance.
