Range Report 6mm 110 gr. Sierra MK

[parshal]

Has anyone used these in the 6 Creed? How much different was the load from the 105 Hybrid? I've got 500 of them I haven't loaded yet but thought I'd ask for other experience.

 

[jbailey]

would like to hear any data on this bullet in another cartridge: 6x47 Lapua. I'm in same camp otherwise as Parshal. These look like great bullets.

Trying them out in a Dasher this week

Planning on running them in 6 creedmoor. Rifle isn't ready yet though. The charge weights seem to be pretty close to the 105 loads from what little I have seen so far. Not a lot of bearing surface on that bullet.

I picked some up to try out in my 6slr in the next week or so. It shoots DTACs well, but would like to have something else worked up in case I can't find the DTACs.

 

[mrbig]

will they shoot in an 8 twist or do you really need a 7.5 or faster twist,,

 

[phxfa]

7.5 twist barely squeaks by according to Bergers twist rate calculator,,,2000 ft elevation figured in @2925fps.

following i am my self shooting 105 in the creed ..trying to go a little heavier..

 

[RSCOM]

I tried them in an 8 and 8.5 6 Creed and lapua. They shot ok. I want to get a 7.5 for them

7.5 works, Dasher at 300 meters. .690

7.5 works, Dasher at 300 meters. .690

Wow

Would this bullet do well in a standard .243? Would using heavier bullets with slower MV help add a bit of barrel life? I know it is mostly up to the rate of fire but wondering if slower heavier bullets would make any difference.

Should work fine in a 243 as long as you have a fast enough twist to stabilize them.

It's debatable but heavier bullet moving slower would most likely not get you better barrel life if they are ran at the same pressures.

Try H1000, H4831sc or 7828ssc
I like 7828ssc in a 243. Cooler charge
