[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 133554, member: 7"] [ QUOTE ] I am looking at building a 6 mm rifle. I have been looking at the sierra reloading book, but I would like to have the PD's explode at 300 yds. What do you think would be a good load for this mission? Also, what is the thought on the distance this cartridge is able to kill at? I am looking at the deer size game? [/ QUOTE ] The 6mm Rem is a good choice. For exploding PD's at 300yds, try the Sierra 55gr BlitzKing or the Hornady 58 V-Max. You can use these bullets with a 14" or 12" twist, but I would strongly recommend that you get a 9" twist, cuz once you have whacked a few at 300yds, then 500 and 800 will look doable, and for that you will need the 70gr BlitzKing, or the 87gr V-Max.
