@JDHasty is spot on with the twist.  If it is stamped 6mm Rem, you are good to go.  The pre- cursor 244 Remington had the slow twist.  I had a Rem 700 6mm Rem that I killed many deer with the factory 100 gr Core Lock and then 85gr Barnes and one spike bull.  It is now re-barreled to 338 Federal.  I have dies and lots of brass if you are interested.

I do plan to reload, and good advise to keep an eye on overall length. I'll probably use the 100gr Hornaday interlock bullet. So, yes, as I save my fun money, I will be in the market for brass and dies. The rifle is stamped 6mm rem and according to the Sn, best I can figure is its a 84 year.

I acquired a Remington 600 Mohawk chambered in 6mm Remington a few years ago. I bought a few boxes of PPU PRVI 100gr to use to acquire brass and actually that ammo shoots really good out of it. I also acquired  a bunch of old Speer 105g Spitzers that I have been using a 2nd edition Speer loading manual for loads. I haven't had any chambering issues reloading. I am also planning on trying to load Hornady 100g interlocks when my stash of 105s run out.
