Either will work great, for fox I'd use the lighter bullets so I'd prefer the 6PPC. 6BR will be better for heavier bullets.

I would do a 6BR with a no turn neck, .272". Keep it simple.

Default I shoot a 6BR Encore pistol at 1000 yards

Even got in the shoot off a few times H-4895 is your powder.The barrel is an MGM,very accurate with the Berger 95.For varmints the 87 V-Max should be awesome,have fun.My barrel length is 15" to meet the hunter class rules at the MOA shoot in Sundance.

you might want to run the numbers in Quickload against a 6TCU, in a barrel that short, before you make the final decision. or not
