The 6UM

[khuber84]

What do you like for min neck clearance hunting? That's part of where I screwed up on my one custom reamer order. Shouldn't have listened to the bench guys!

4-5 thou for cartridges, under 60gr, 5 though for case larger. I turned some Norma improved for 6thou clearance, and it works great. 5 is kinda the gold standard. Anything under 4 and it's tight getting a bullet into a fired case, and I don't like that. Tight necks are for the benchrest/F-class bois.

Does a 6 UM feed reliably out of any of the factory Tikka magazines?

Yes, I use a LA Mag and the 6.5 PRC mag. No issues with either
