6mm Remington.. Varmint or Deer?

[Brithunter]

Hi All,

I aquired this rifle in a trade and I am looking for information and experiences about the 6mm Remington cartridge which it's chambered for. The rifle has a heavy 4 1/2lbs barrel so it's a might bit heavy for stalking although not impossible, make a great High seat rifle I suppose.

Well here it is:-


It's a Parker-Hale 1200V which of course is a M98 action.

Due to ammunition unavailablity locally I have yet to try it out, for now I have fitted Alloy P-H bases and a once piece alloy P-H mount holding a 6x42 scope. Hope to pick up some ammo on Friday.
