Are you winding us up? you wanna use a 22/250 case as its cheaper than a 6x47l and now you wanna use 6x47l brass to make 6/250AI brass :? :idea:

Trev, just asking is all. Was thinking of an easy way to make a 6x47L Imp. But after some testing, I've gotten the 6x47L to do what I want with a change in powder.

Shaun, my experience with the 6x47l was limited (I polish the brass occassionally just waiting for another barrel in that calibre one day :oops: )

Does it need to be improved would be my question?

Anyway show us some pics of the rifle and targets (you know, those furry ones you only get to use once :D )

And given the performance I've gotten from it this weekend. I don't think it needs improving much except to run same MV at lower pressures which would give better case life. I've got a fee ideas of what I may try. Just have to get a reamer print to have a look at.
