n8ess Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm looking to try a few alternative loads, has anyone tried 55 grain Nosler BT in a 6mmbr, mine is a 1-9 twist, wondering whether they would stabilize ok? I would appreciate any load data you may have. Cheers Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alycidon Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Should be ok, here's a few loads http://www.nosler.com/index.php?p=15&b=6mm&s=179 I was quite surprised by their accuracy in a 1 in 14 recently, 3 shot group was one jagged hole in ideal conditions.

n8ess Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Thanks, Which load did you use? and what was your COL Cheers Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alycidon Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Mine was in a PPC so lengths etc are different but I find 2 thou off the rifleing works well, powder was N133 x 29.5 gr but this is a HOT load, build up slow etc. A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest varmartin Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Hi Neil.. You will be able to stabalize them ok...even maybe over stabalized which will make them very close to be `dust` as they leave the tube. I doubt you will achieve velocities approaching 6mm ppc loads due to the twist, but accuracy should be good enough to creat ` pink mist `out of varmints..
