Anyone have any experience with this cartridge? I'm having a rifle built in this caliber and I would be interested in data or opinions. Thanks. Bill

1) easy conversion for an ar-15, use the same mags & bolt assy.......
2) heavier bullets to use for deer sized animals.
3) people like to play with guns & experiment man !
4) I could go on, but I have heard enuf of myself!

Wilmsmeyer, 1. Like Bubba said -- experiment and play. 2. Thousands of 223 brass that I can't use up in .224. 3. Most people don't know what it is.  4. Lower half of 243 Win velocity for 1/3 less powder. 5. Short action and standard bolt face. 6. Better bullet BC over .224 selection that works well in my 223. 7. 6mm "Better?" for 'yotes than .224. 7. And I am waxing too eloquent so to close, just to play. |

Excellent answers. All of the "strange" wildcats do entice questions. There are little niches that they fill.

I went the other direction down to .204. Don't care for what Todd
Kindler called it, "Tactical 20", but I totally love it! Hope you have
as much fun with the 6mm-223!

Gunsmith e-mailed that the rifle is completed ;D ;D ;D. Should be in my hot little hands in a week or so. I didn't get this twiterpated at Christmas as a kid. OK -- when I was a littler kid.
Hope to post some pics of the rifle and some tiny groups.
