A little on the pricey side.

It seems to be a far and few between caliber these days. Never used to be.
It's not for me. It's for a friend of mine.
There are other guns he can use but he wants to use his 6mm.
It will probably be his last hunt and that is the gun he wants to use.

It's one of those calibers that had its heyday in the 60s and 70s, but .243 eclipsed it and has fallen by the wayside.

In grade school, one of my friend's daddy had an old Remington 700 in that caliber. I haven't seen one since.

You can find some on Gunbroker but it's expensive.

I have put a few bids in.
It's expensive alright.

Does your friend have any brass? If you can borrow a set of dies and your friend has some brass, I can load some for you guys. I have everything else, just need dies and brass.

I doubt he has any brass and I have no dies.
I do appreciate the offer though.

Looks like 7mm Mauser (7x57) can be formed to 6mm Remington. But you should step it down to 260 then 6mm

Then you need to fireform and trim to length.

If you don’t already reload, you will need to start reloading.

Alternatively you have to pay the premium on what’s available

Either way this cartridge will require a considerable financial commitment.
