Most of my bolt actions guns are all 20" barrels or shorter.. I have a Remington Mohawk 6mm, a Ruger Compact, a Remington Model 7 and they all shoot great.. The Ruger actually has 16.5" barrel and it is the better shooter..

Just a thought ,But maybe you could find a .243 that suited you as far as feel and barrel length?Then if it is possible and /or probable ream the chamber out a little to make the 6 mm? Maybe some of the smarter guy's on here could give you a better idea on whether it is cost effective or not.
