Scott, I am with ya on the mauser--and was inferring that up to this point the 6mm had already more burned more glucose for the parts on hand, than any other caliber. It could still go that route--in the bigger picture, a 22 with heavier bullets, would be just as much deer caliber as anything else for my needs. Most of the matter is probably once fit in the narrow stock channel, the amount of barrel left around the hole.
