Hello Everyone

First time poster, long time reader.

Thanks to Mr Dundas I have become fond of fly shooting attending a few of his rimfire comps.
I am a regular in the Mudgee region and I plan to come and shoot the fly matches up there where possible.

I recently purchased a Bartlien 30" Barrel that will be chambered in 6BR and fitted to my old Omark that received a good freshen up a couple of years back.
I plan to use this rifle for a bit of casual comp and to test out some stock designs to oneday duplicate using my copying machine.


I have never tried moly coating and with a new fresh barrel I thought it would be a good opportunity to see what its all about.

My concern is will moly take too many fps away from the 6BR and leave me with not enough spare case volume to make up lost speed?


To my understanding 6BR is a pretty common cartridge in your game and before I waste the money on moly and ruining some pills I thought I would seek your advice whether to moly or not?

Thanks in advance
