Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Competitive Shooting 6mm BR remington

I recently purchased a TC encore pistol to help out a friend in need. The pistol is a "6mm BR remington." I have a decent amount of cartridge knowledge but the benchrest cartridges have never interested me. So I am a little lost on this one. From what I have researched, there is a difference between the Norma and Remington 6mm BR.

Anybody with any knowledge on these be able to help me? can i shoot 6mmBR norma out of my barrel? I plan to reload obviously for this but I do have some access to 6mm BR norma ammo.

If you will take the time to read the following you will learn much on the subject.

The 6mmbr is my favorites for a no muss no fuss accurate cartridge. All of mine have been rifles though...
My current is a 1-12 twist Remington, slower twist and a shorter throat, 80 gr bullets shoot well.
My previous barrels have been 1-10, 1-8, 1-10, 1-12
Creeker steered you to the right place for cartridge information.

I don't think your barrel is throated long enough for factory Norma ammo.

I have owned 7x30 Waters in a contender and your 6mmBR Encore is intriguing!
