Since there is no GT brass available , and have done my share of brass forming in my 50+ years of shooting it looks like I'll go with a new 6 CM bbl.My choice of chambers are the 6 CM. and the "match" 6 CM chamber. With a Max range of 600 Yds. I don't see the need to shoot anything heavier than the 108 ELD's. Also my choices are either a 26" with a 1-8 T or a 24" with a 1-7.5 T
I don't thing there would be much difference between the 24 & 26 " bbl'a as far as MV goes. And the 1-8 T would probably do better with the Hornady and Nosler 105's. & 108's. This will be a bench rifle for "steel banging" only
thoughts ??
 
Go with the standard 6CM chamber. "Match" is meaningless without knowing what the FB and neck diameter is. 1:8 is plenty.

The way I read this, is if I were to take a 6 MM bullet , stick it in the muzzle end and engrave the nose of the bullet on the lands. then measure down .383" from that mark , and mark the bullet at that point. Then seat that bullet to where the mark was even with the case mouth, the seated bullet would be touching the beginning of the riflings.
