6 Creed throating questions…

[Tanner]

Anybody care to chime in on 6 Creed throat and COAL dimensions?


Recently purchased a Tikka 6mm CM that was built by a reputable smith in Denver. Went to start load dev tonight and couldn’t quite believe my eyes as I ended up having to seat 108 ELDM down to 2.700” to get off the lands, as I know factory 108s are closer to 2.79”.

115 DTAC NR ended up around 2.795” just barely be off the lands which made more sense to me.

Wondering if this chamber was potentially cut with a non-SAAMI reamer.

Thanks all.

Ask him what freebore was used.

Ask him what freebore was used.

I will for sure. It seems very well set up for the 115 DTACs which is my main interest anyway.

same issue with a carbon 6 barrel I have and the 108’s. Just ordered a new barrel from UM that hopefully will work with them and the 112 MB’s. Seems like the ogjve is farther forward in the 108’s than other bullets, but I am just learning about all of this so who knows.
