I came into a pile of 6mm Rem ammo and am wondering if there are any rifles out there that might be available. Looking for something in the $500.00 range. I'd love to find a Rem 788. Let me know what you have and price shipped to Wisconsin.

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Thanks for suggestion on the Ruger. Should have mentioned I prefer wood and blue in my rifles.

There is a 788 in 6mm at Green Country Gun and Pawn in Tulsa. A little over priced at $600 IMO, but its there.

Thanks, guys -- at $600.00, that 788 is a bit overpriced in my opinion as well. I can't believe what they are listed for (not selling for) on gunbroker.
As for the ammo -- it is all reloads, so I can't sell it.
Funny -- one of my boys has a 788 in 6mm that I gave him about 10 years ago. His first time deer hunting he shot the biggest buck anyone in the family has ever bagged. Maybe I should take it back????

I saw a 70's 6mm 700 BDL in a pawn shop last year and it was also $600 which seemed ridiculously high. By comparison, I bought a like-new and apparently unfired BDL in .22-250 for $350 from a LGS. I went back to look again at the 6mm as it's on my wish list too and it was gone.

Buddy found a nice one last year in 788 at Dallas gunshow for $400. Well worth that. What ever you buy better see if those reloads will chamber ok before you take it. I got several older 6mms. One of my favorite calibers.

Scheels in Bismarck had a Rem 600 in 6MM about a month ago, no clue if it's still there. IIRC it was marked $650.

Just took mine to my gunsmith last Saturday along with a Douglas premium .284 barrel blank to be finished in .280 AI. So I'll have a nice 22", 1:10 barrel for a LR Mauser chambered in 6mm Remington if you want to start from scratch. Free bump. Have fun!
