    243/6mm rcbs 243-095

    Anyone ever use one for a 6x45 seeming that it's on the upper threshold of weight.
    ?

    I shoot this boolit in a 6x45 and it shoots very well indeed. My rifle has a 10" twist though.
    My rifle is built on a Rem 700 short action that had a previous incarnation as a boat gun in a village in Alaska.
    The receiver is well pitted but the resurrection to 6x45 was successful. The receiver may not be pretty but the groups this rifle shoots are beautiful.

    OK here are a few, standard cautions apply!
    13.2gn H 4227 = 2000 fps = very good
    18.5gn AA 2015 = fair
    24gn AA 2700 = fair
    13.4gn 5744 = good
    13.5gn WW 680 = fair
    11.5gn 2400 = good
    25gn H380 = very good
    13gn WC820 = 2000fps
    10.5gn Blue Dot
    19gn H4895
    15.5gn Norma #200 = 1950 fps = very good
    Best accuracy was the H-4227 load. I have a few targets that are just under one inch 5 shot groups at 150 yards.
