Book velocity is darn slow, as they are lawyered up. Look at 4 books and you get 4 different velocity as max loads.I shoot rem 700's where the bolt head alone is tested at 150,000 psi. Brass will fail in the 70,000 psi range.

A pard is shooting a 6/284 with 80g at 3800 and now he is shooting the 55g Nosler at 4400 fps as a coyote hunting load. Another pard is shooting the 80g Sierra bt Blitz at 3800 out of a Shilen like mine cut with my reamer.

6mm Rem AI = the 6/284 in most respects

if you think that your 6 AI is fast, throw out some stats for us to look at, ie. bullet, load, barrel length, throat length or freebore, etc.


>>>i will back that up too ! > my 6mm-284 `s both shoot those same velocities as above and are very accurate too.Pete53
