Savage 110 Elite Precision 6mm Creedmoor load data help

[hd98fxdl]

I just purchased this rifle and I am wanting to shoot longer range with it (up to 1200yds). It has a 1-10 twist barrel. I am looking at the Hornady 110 gr A-Tip bullet but open to suggestions. I was also looking at Winchester Staball 65 powder. I would appreciate help working up the best load for it regardless of bullet and powder.
Thanx

Are you sure about that twist rate?

If your twist rate is actually a 1:10, you may have a tough time stabilizing the 110s as Hornady recommends a minimum 1:7.7 twist.

Double check your twist rate and then you can use this:

Twist Rate Stability Calculator

Our newly updated Twist Rate Stability Calculator not only tells you what your SG is, but it also lets you know if you are reaching your optimized BC.

And for load data, I would reference a manual with Sta-Ball info. It can be found on the Hodgdon web site.

LOL. I was looking at the wrong caliber. It’s 1-7.5. Big difference

After the twist-rate correction, looks as if no one was willing to help.. I don't know if I'll actually help, but look at my 6mmcreed thread...

You are being redirected...

...for some ideas.. Mine has been succesful with both the Nosler RDF105 and the Berger Long-Range Hybid 109.. I use mostly Superformance and also StaBALL6.5.. Pls let us know how you're doing.

Oh ya...I have a 110 Elite Precision in 6Creed arriving next week.
