[QUOTE="crazyhorse, post: 2367553, member: 3056"] Last year I converted a shot out 6mm Remington to a 6GT and I'll never go back! The GT has shot every load I've tried and ES/SD in this cartridge is absolutely amazing. I've tried the 105 Bergers, 103 ELD's, 108 ELD's and the 95gr Sierra TGK. All can get to single digit ES/SD with very little effort. So far I've racked up a 300yd doe antelope and several whitetail with outstanding results using the 105 hybrid. Shooting a 24" Bartlien and Varget, I'm getting an easy 2950 with the 105's and can push to 3050 without pressure. Coolest thing so far is I recently ordered some 80gr Hammer Hunters and can get to 3400fps with barely a flattened primer. Still in the initial load work process but a 10 shot group across 4 grains of powder all went into an inch! I've picked the 3325fps load (not at home, cant remember exact charge weight of Varget) due to insane ES/SD (low single digits) and to stay away from pressure. Going to start out using for coyotes but I wouldn't be scared to shoot a whitetail with this load under 200yds. [/QUOTE]
