Just picked up a Seekins PH2 in 6 Creedmoor. Looking for a load/bullet suggestion for coyotes and for deer. I have shot 1/2 " 3 shot groups at 200yds with H4350 and 105 BTHP. Running a suppresser. My Ruger shot 87gr VMAX into an inch at 200Yds. Just not sure of the heaver bullet performance on game. Not saving coyotes. Thanks in advance. 224TH

That H4350 works very well 103 eldx, 105 scenars, or 105 bthp, all with same charge. I wouldn't look much further.

Also have a Seekins PH2. I’m shooting the 103 ELD-X at 2980 fps using Hunter. H4350 performed just as well. Shot an antelope at 300 yards a couple weeks ago. The bullet entered just behind the right shoulder and exited through the left. The antelope went about 10 feet, lungs were destroyed.

My buddy has outstanding success with SB 6.5 in his custom 6 CM. Not sure his charge but he's shooting the 103 ELD-X. I have seen him kill three deer with that from 270 to 450 yards and it performed great. Also no change in velocity from 75 to 30 degrees.

My kids element shoots lights out with RL16 and 108eldm’s. Sample of one - worked great on a buck last week.
Probably would hammer with other bullets and H4350 but I haven’t seen a need to try. Awesome rifle.

I'd like to have a 6 CM in a Tikka...who's the Smith that everyone uses. I think Bigstick uses him.
