Those cartridges exist to fit in the space constraints of the AR platform. Unless you have one of a very few actions scaled to fit them, what's the point?

I can load 6x45 or Grendel performance from 6mm/243 or 260/Creed if I want that low performance from a short action.

Given the recoil levels of full power loads, I can't imagine a reason to If I'm trying to suit a kid, lower pressured rounds would help noise levels slightly. Advantage bigger rounds.
. 223 I can see due to high volume varmints. Thats not me though.

Not if CZ would change their safety and price the guns like they were in the past? A Grendel or a 7.62x39 would be cool as hell in a tiny 527 Carbine.

JMHO


Since the 6x45mm is a necked up 223, any action chambered to the 223 should work just fine. Do you think that the action should be scaled down to a mini Mauser size? I had a mini Mauser in 7.62x39. I found it was like carrying a toy rifle. I guess we all have our preferences. smile

I haven't shot anything with my 6x45s past 250 to 300 yd, but they were coyotes, not deer. Personally, I wouldn't use a 6x45mm for deer for distances past about 150 yd, but that's a personal choice.


Safe Shooting!
