Elwood Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 If anyone has any experience of reloading for this cal using projectiles between 90 and 105 grains I would be glad to hear from you. The purpose is for fallow deer stalking, but any loads for target shooting would also be appreciated, in particular I’m looking for a powder of choice.

John MH Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 N160 worked well with 105 Scenars and 107 SMKs, start at around 38 Grains and work up from there. RL17 (RS60) also works well but I use that with 115 Grain Bullets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeman Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 I don't shoot the 6XC but it's very close neighbour the 6 x 47 Lapua and I'd echo what John HM has said, N160 is what I use with 107SMK. N560 will also work but I got a few hang fires with certain primers. I've also used N550 but I think probably a bit fast burning for that case and bore diameter with the heavier bullets. Probably N555 would also be ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 Ian ask Darren he’s had a 6XC for years. I would expect N160, RS62 and 4831sc would be good choices. Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Re-Pete Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 I've had good results with 105 grain bullets and RS62 in 6x47...MV's around 2950fps. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
