I have reason to load to a shorter OAL in 6.5 CM, anyone have experience with 120 grain TTSX or 120 grain Sierras in CM. Looking I thinking they will be a good length. Thanks.

I would like keep it under 2.800 because that is the typical length of the 260 Rem. and that does work in this arrangement.

I shot the 123 Hornady bthp match with 44.5grs h4350 from one of my 6.5cm’s and it was quite great in the accuracy department.


When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

Nosler's published max of 45gr/H4350 under the 120 BT shoots half MOA in my rifle, and just over 3000 FPS with a 22" barrel. That's at 2.755" OAL.

Factory 147's in 264 Kreed are 2.800". Hint.

You are TRYING To get the cart,in front of the horse and I simply would not. Hint.

You could cut to the fhuqking chase and cite the EXACT platform you are trying to feed,along with it's particulars and rest assured,THE schittiest bullets available,ain't the fhuqking "cure". Hint.

Just sayin'................

I load the 120 TTSX in creeds and 6.5-06’s. They do very well. Haven’t lost an animal yet.
