[QUOTE="357Mag, post: 1525906, member: 106883"] Crowsnest - Howdy ! I like the Berger 95s for use on " Soybeanus Digestus ", but later began liking the Sierra 6mm 95MKs even better ! These days, I'm working on finding a great load using RL-23 and the new " tipped " 95MKs. I think the polymer tip can only help things. Despite the difference in " burn rate ", my charges of RL-23 look like they'll end-up being only .1 or .2gr more than the charge wt of RL-22 that I had been using. I've read that RL-22 burns pretty hot, and I want to go w/ a powder that is proven to be fairly temp insensitive.... an advertised positive characteristic of RL-23. I'm shooting a 6mm wildcat of my own design, that has case capacity of 51.2gr H2O. Compare to .243Win @ 54gr H2O, 6mm Remington @ 55gr H2O. IMHO - 95s w/ enough vel on them would be lethal on GH, even @ 1,000yd. I don't believe I need to go any heavier on bullet wt, even were a 1,000yd shot taken. With regards, 357Mag [/QUOTE]
