Since this is a Gunwriter' s forum I have to share that the main reason my first deer rifle was a 6mm stems back over 50 years to when I was a kid reading a F & S or Sports Afield in a barbershop waiting for my haircut. Musta been around +-1970. There was a deer hunting yarn written by a hunter describing the shot he finally took with his 'flat shooting 6mm' . I always remembered that and thought, "Gee it must be magical" I swear I can just abut remember the illustration too - all these years later . Would love to find that article somehow.
