Varget will work just fine
I have a 243 Winchester and shoot 87gr and 95gr bullets in it. It's very similar to the 6mm Creedmoor performance wise. I would look at H4350, IMR 4451, and RL16. I use IMR 4451 in my .243 and my loads are 3320fps with the 87gr VMAX and 3220fps with the Berger 95gr. Everyone likes to shoot Varget or something similar but you won't get the performance from a powder that fast like you will with the 4350 burn rate powders.

I would love to use h4350 but its imposible to get right now
Then use IMR 4451. I've found it pretty easily even during this reloading pandemic.

i cant find anything online about loading the 6 creed with the 88 berger have no idea as to charge weights
With your available choices, Varget.
Sierra lists data for their 90gr bullets. I would start at their minimum and work up.

What twist rate did you go with? I've got a 7.5 twist on order, planning on using 90 to 107 grain bullets.

I hear ya, I'm six weeks in to 12 week minimum lead time. I've got H4350, Staball 6.5 and reloader 16 to try. Going to use the 105 Nosler RDF bullet to size chamber. Going to be my new truck gun for coyotes, replacing a 6mm Remington.

i got this gun for the coyotes too i may be wrong but i thought that berger 88 vld varmit would be perfect for them
