I have had the 112's shoot good in 6 Creed. Very explosive. Don't think I would try shooting deer with them.
Those two powders seem to be the better choices in the CM.They shot great in my Creed with 6.5 Sta-ball. At the time that was the only powder I had. Have not played with the BC yet to see. I usually do a "custom curve" in my Kestrel. I will be working it up with H4350 and will report what I find.
Both barrels, 6 CM & 6.5-06 were McGowen made and re-barreled by McGowen in Kalispell, on Ruger M77 MKII actions, both 8 twist. The 6 CM has a stainless, 5R 8 twist, McGowen 4 contour 24" barrel having a recessed crown. I hope to try both out at 1,000 this summer with Barnes Match Burner Bullets & Hornady ELDM's.
ZR600 I have an update on the 145MB in my 8" twist 28" Bartlein Creed. I said I would report back with my results on them with H4350.I seen the Barnes match burner 145 instock. Looked them up and the bc is listed at .703, has anybody shot these and was the bc close at all? Seems like it's a little high. Were the bullets accurate?
Would you mind sharing your load data?I shoot the 145's in my 6.5 SST Sherman and they shoot well. Shot a 12X12 Steel target yesterday @ 1050 yards hit it 4 out of five shots. That's as good as this old man can shoot. They don't shoot quite as well in my 6.5 GAP but still 1/2-3/4 MOA in that rifle as well.
