Rem-6MM, here you go, this is good for me in my Ruger Redhawk and Marlin 1894 Cowboy.

17.5 grains of 2400 and 240 grain cast RNFP. Gets 1204 fps out of the Redhawk and 1554 fps from the Marlin. Kills whitetails very decisively, and is very pleasant to shoot.

I also shoot those same 240s and a batch of Keith style that weigh 260gr. with 18.5 grains of 2400 from those same two guns. (just haven't run them over the chronograph.}

I would not hesitate to shoot any game we have here in MT with the either one of those loads.
