What bullet powder combo are you using? Most of my hunting will be 100-300 yards on medium sized whitetails. Was thinking about the barnes ttsx and H4381 powder. Any reccomendations?
I've been shooting 43.5gr of IMR-4350 with 100gr Hornady and Noslers for the last 30yrs.I also use this load for 105gr Speers.I've used this load for several 6mm and each one shot it really well.
I worked up this load for a friend's 6mm Rem. 100 gr partition with RL-17 was stunningly accurate and fast! Five shots on each target different days. After it was sighted in my friend's daughter shot ragged holes at 100 yds too.

That looks like a winner right there! A 95-100gr PT would probably be how I rolled as well. The speed is just icing on the cake, and I'd be happy with 3,100-3,200fps.
That is smoking fast for the Rem. Heck, that's the speeds I get from a 26" 6-06 with much slower burners.
Worked up a couple loads a while back for my brother's M77 6Rem with the 90NABs over R17 and Hunter. Both shot really well and gave around 3150fps. We went with R17 and he's been pleased on WTs thus far.
