Ive got a tikka t3 that I’ll be putting the carbon six on. Rokstok is an option that Ill be looking at also.

Will be looking for updates on yours when you...

How does the carbon 6 .284 barrel shoot? I just ordered one. Sent some dummy rounds in with 168 bergers set out pretty far. They mentioned to me that the saami reamer they have (the Manson you mentioned) would likely work but they would throat if necessary. Ordered mine at 21”.
