WTB long range riffle (help is appreciated)

[Fjold]

For a beginner, get a gun chambered in a factory loaded round. It's better to concentrate on learning to shoot without all the extras like case forming, etc.

Oh yeah, I didn't consider the OP was a fairly inexperienced shooter.

If you want a 6 but want to start with factory ammo, get a 6mm Creedmoor. It will resemble your eventual wonder6 a lot more than a .308.

I don't get it? What's the downside to the 6GT, other than brass availability or having to form it yourself?

no quality brass

limited dies and reamers

no factory ammo
