Be tough for me to not go straight 243, 1-8", at 22". 6x47 Lapua if you're feeling fancy.

Tanner I think you are likely correct and I can't disagree, but I think I'd still go 6.5 Creedmoor.

Do not cyber-bully. I am trying to learn. This is why all the "old timers" do not post.

The Lapua's use small rifle primers. The 243 Winchester, 6mm Creedmoor and 6.5 Creedmoor use large rifle primers.

Since the conversation has turned to rifles and not Weatherbys, what should I re-tube my Montana to next year? 6 Creed? 6.5? .243 and 8 twist?
Travis I heard retro-tech is in for 2016, slow twist 6.5 Roberts for the win.

The Lapua brass are stamped Lapua on the head. The brass are brass colored. The 6x47 Lapua uses 6mm diameter (.243 caliber) bullets. The 6.5x47 Lapua uses 6.5mm diameter (.264 caliber) bullets.
Most are chambered in bolt action rifles. Those are rifles that you have to manually chamber a cartridge by utilizing what is called the 'bolt' that slides to and fro in the receiver. Attached to the bolt is a bolt handle to help in this action. There are also other parts such as ejectors/extractors but we'll get to those later.
Happy to help FNG's.

But I have also heard of bullet heads. Are those stamped?

You guys are great, learning so much on here. Now can you guys tell me about see-thru scope mounts? The guy at Wal-Mart said they are the schnizzle.

Happy to help FNG's. Have you got a W.E.T. infection? Isnt the cure for a W.E.T. infection an injection of 230 grains of lead behind the ear? I heard the W.E.T. infection is fancy speak for a lead deficiency in the diet.
