Ah yes...6mm...a.k.a. .243. We've got a Rem M-700 here that I did VERY minor work on. Nothing that you couldn't do in the kitchen. Mainly, we took almost ALL of the overtravel out of the trigger. The M-700 trigger is very adjustable. The trigger weight was reduced to "about" 2 lbs, and we reduced the length of travel to (I "think") about .015" before sear disengages.

Then, we ground the bbl beds out of the stock, and put a "credit card shim" under the main bolt that holds the receiver to the stock. You have to drill a hole in the card, and trim it up nicely, but it lifts the bbl out of the stock just "enough". After this...we stuck some decent optics on it, and were VERY careful with handloads. Now the rifle shoots .3" groups at 300 yards...so long as there is no wind. :-) Here's a picture of it! :-)



Sorry it's a little hard to tell what it is. Ah...you seen on M-700, ya seen em all. :-)
