[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1331076, member: 27307"] I'm not sure that you're heading in the right direction. The 6mm x 22 Nosler holds about 34 grains of water. The 6x47 (6mm on the .222 Rem Mag case) holds 33 grains of water. The 6mm AR holds 36 grains of water (needs the rim turned down...). In my opinion, I would start with the minimum amount of energy it takes to topple the ram with a proper hit, allowing for a little room to waffle. Then I would decide on the case, bullet and powder combination which will get you to that point or better. All of those cartridges above will yield about 1,700 ft.lbs. of energy at the muzzle and ~760 ft.lbs. at 500 yards, when you use the 95 grain bullet in order to get your powder space back from using the 105 VLDs. I think this could use a little more analysis. Regards. [/QUOTE]
