[QUOTE="GLC1, post: 2416551, member: 69451"] I have two Rem700’s in 6X45. One barrel is a Shilen heavy varmint and one is a Bartlein 3b sporter. Both are 8” twist. Awesome caliber. Super accurate and mild. Use good 223 brass and one run through the sizer makes your brass. Trim length is the same. Powders are anything normal for 223. ARComp, IMR 8208, and Benchmark work for me. Barrel life is about forever and recoil is mild. 223 bolt head keeps things simple. 70 SMK’s run about 2950 fps. 85 Sierra HPBT with Benchmark gets me 2850 fps. 95 SMK’s are superb out of the heavy gun but get single loaded due to length. About 2750 fps if I remember correctly. I tried some 105’s but they are too long and too slow to be really useful. [/QUOTE]
