Are they fairly rare, and is there much of a demand for them?


Never messed with a 6mm but had a hunting buddy that had one. He killed a pile of deer.

I've owned a 742 in 243 since the mid 90s. The thing has never hiccuped. Actually shot the old fed premium NPT offering into 1.5". My son has the gun currently and is shooting Federal Blue box when he hunts it.
