What powders besides Varget and H4350 could I experiment with in my 6GT?
Can you get a complete burn with H4350? My choice for a slower powder would be RL 16, esp with a 110 or 115gr bullet.What powders besides Varget and H4350 could I experiment with in my 6GT?
Not sure. I know you don't get the same velocities as you would with Varget but it's very popular in the PRS/NRL world.Can you get a complete burn with H4350? My choice for a slower powder would be RL 16, esp with a 110 or 115gr bullet.
Most use Varget, 105's, 109's
Very true but it seems like this cartridge will just about shoot with any of these powders. You don't think I could try Ramshot tac? It fall under those burn rates.That's a big spread in powder speed between those two.
I've had good luck with anything that I've used varget in also being able to find a nice load with rl15.
Where do you get your RL15.5?I run RL15.5 with 108 Berger. 33.6 grains gets me 2930 out of 26" gain twist. I have also run N150 with similar results. N550 or N555 would be options as well.
Only slow depending on barrel length. If a shorter barrel it may be better because the faster burn rate. Longer barrel can take advantage of the faster powder. Varget works great in my shorter barreled 6.5 but rl26 works great with longer barrels.I've been using IMR 4350 with great results. 2975fps. Forget Varget it's really slow in this cartridge. 4166 shoots well and to my surprise Superformance has impressed me in the GT. I've never had Super run very accurate but my GT loves it.
