[QUOTE="twoftagl, post: 1023353, member: 46908"] OH, and forgot to mention: what's the best NEW 6mm brass? I don't have the time for caseprep, so I'm willing to pay for the higher consistency? Fearnowind: No, I haven't tried Varget yet. If I can't get these to work then it will be on my list, especially cause its in the burn window I'm looking at with the shorter bbl. Budlight: Interesting, your unsatisfactory results with the 4350. I'd heard so many good things about the superformance I picked some up before realizing they don't list it for the 100 grain pills, but a quick search here shows another guy getting exactly what you predicted, 3000, out of a 20" barrel. AZ: man, if I can't can't get a respectable velocity out of these others, I'll be sure to go to the rl17 first. That's really good for a 100gr. Only reason I have these two IMRs is because 6mm, 243 and 30-06 (of which I'll be doing load workups for all three here shortly) seem to have two powders as the time-honored standbys, the IMR 4064 and either IMR or H 4350. So, that's the only reason I had those two, and the superformance I grabbed cause it was on the shelf and I remembered hearing some good results in 243 with it. Shoot, I think I might take both powders to the range and run em side-by-side and see what happens. That's about the only way I can get a decent comparison with my crono anyhow. Thanks for the input! Any experience with new brass that doesn't need prep would be a big help! Never delt with new and I don't have enough of the same brass to get started with the 6mm Chris [/QUOTE]
