They make BNC crimp connectors for RG-6. I've even seen them at Lowes.

Subject: Topband: interconnecting cables
I am curious about terminating RG-6 cable connections in the ham shack.
I have been using several types of adapters, i.e. F female to BNC male, F
female to UHF male, or F female to RCA.
I have not been overly impressed with these adapters from either an
electrical or mechanical viewpoint.
Is there a preferred method for termination, like soldering a PL-259 on
RG-6?
I like using the F connectors on the receive side, to prevent damage caused
by user error.
