Alycidon Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I would suggest that the 65 gr VMax would be a better bullet in most 6mm/243/244s for foxes. Velocity will be within a few percent of the 58 gr. A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abolter Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 43.5gr powder looks like the max and gives 3728fps with near enough 60000fps 40gr gives 47000 pressure and 3464fps based on seat depth of 6mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My copy is on an old box. A 41grains puts it right on line between yellow and pink, 50000psi and 3540fps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abolter Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 ???? Quickload colour codes its output. Yellow being a "comfortable" load with decent pressure, Pink being loads that are starting to get up there and Red which are in principle dangerous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
