Finman Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi Sako, In danger of stating the obvious, I would recommend looking at the 6mmbr site (www.6mmbr.com) for 105gn AMax data. I use N135 all the time, it gives spectacular performance with bullets up to 80gn. I think it is probably a bit too fast for anything over that. I have had good luck with 31.8gn Varget and 31gn N135 with 80gn Berger HP. good luck! Finman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 In the 6mmBr with 105 A max I use N150 with great success. N135 is fine for bullets upto 80 grains but is a tad to fast for the 105's. You can also use N540 or N140 aswell. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sako Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Thanks everyone for your input. I went out today loaded from30 grain up to 32.4 half grain at a time. It liked the 31grain vvn135 touching the lance the group size was 0.220. This was with new lapau brass. when i got back home i loaded 31grain again to make sure it was not a fluke. but this time only neck sized the brass did two 3 shot group one was 0.220 and the other was 0.400 this was lying down off bi-pod and it was a bit misty. thanks john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
