Greg, whats your load with TAC?


I got my 6x45 folder out. You asked...grin...

80 grain Remington SP maxed at 26.6 h4895 at 2,790...


80 Winchester SP maxed at 26.0 h335 at 2,700...

75 vmax maxed at 27.7 H335 at 2,940 (super accurate)...

75 vmax maxed at 28.0 TAC at 2,900 (super accurate)...

80 ttsx maxed at 26.0 H335 at 2,670...

85 Sierra Gk HP maxed at 25.8 H335 at 2,700 (killed lots of stuff with this load).

That's enough for now....

21" tube.H4895 is good in the 6x45 too...

For an all around load, I would probably settle on the 95 grain Berger vld at 2,600 or so but the 85 sgk at 2,700 is a penetrating SOB with a mattress BC. Never recovered a bullet at these speeds on a broadside'ish shot...


That's pretty interesting....

Those number look almost exactly what you get out of a 243, with those individual bullet weights with 20 to 22 grains of Blue Dot.

But then the 6 x 45 has a cool factor to it...

I occasionally check out the cartridge, thinking about it...

I have tons of 223 brass ( courtesy of OSP ) and I like the numbers given with H 322, which I have plenty of... that and numbers with AR Comp....

but I'm a bolt action guy...something the size of a Ruger American Predator, without their stupid magazine.... or a Howa Mini in that size rebarreled to the 6 x 45 would make a darn good truck gun....
