6mm Creedmoor - Hammer Bullets

[antleredacres]

Hello: I have a new build, 6mm CM w/Bartlein 23" Barrel. I want to use Hunter Hammers 88gr. and 101 gr. Just not finding much published load data. Just a couple loads on the spread sheet w/ H4350. Has anyone tried any loads with Stabil or RL 16 that they could share their results? Much appreciated.

What's your twist?

What's your twist?

1 - 7.5"

The 88gr should work in that barrel. I'm getting sub moa @100yds in my 6ARC in the 7.5. Running about 2990fps. Try the H4350 and see what happens. I see the starting load is 3000fps.

The 101gr will work also and looking at BISONBALLISTIC.COM bullet stability gyroscope it shows the 101gr from 3000 to 3300 maximum accuracy.

I have a 24" 1:7.5" 6 Creedmoor. I actually got quite a bit better groups with the 101 vs the 88gr HHs.
H4350 @ 3220fps, into tiny little groups out to 400+. The 88s were above 3300, but at every charge weight, the 101s were more accurate in mine. Although, nothing over .65" 3-shots at 100 during testing.

There you go; looks like the 101gr is the way to go. Can you share you COAL and jump?

I don't have that info right now. But, I started .050" off, and never even adjusted seating depth they shot so good. I just loaded up 4 charge weights, and this is what I got. They have sped up since I tested, but are as accurate as ever.

I have a 6 Creedmoor with a 7 twist and haven't tried these just yet. Might be just the right time. Got about 11 lbs of H4350.

Will do.

Will do.

Looks like the 101gr. will be on the next order.

I ran similar load as @lancetkenyon out of mine also. 7 twist 22" Krieger. H4350 is your friend here. IMR4451 will work very well also. Start 2 grains lower and work up. 1/8 crimp @ButterBean method. Shot 1/4 MOA at 100 yards.

Here is mine. 6mm Creedmoor, 22" 7 twist Krieger throated for 105 Bergers. I thought I shared for the HH data page before but I may be mistaken. If you could add if it's not there that would be great. Appreciate you!
