Bad idea. The 6XC case is shorter.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

6XC data plus a grain or two would get you into the ballpark. Why not just use 6 Creed data?

Hodgdon has plenty of 6 Creed data on its site as well.

Pursuit may be, it seems to me, perfect without possession.

Might also mention that Hodgdon's 6mm Creed data looks an awful lot like .243 Winchester data. Not that they'll be interchangeable, but it's not exactly surprising either.....

Hodgdon, Sierra and Hornady have quite a bit of data available, but for the powders they don't list that I possess I'll extrapolate between the 6XC and 243 Win. Max 6XC loads are pretty good start loads for the CM and it usually don't require much tinkering with for accuracy. Had to do that for some 62 gr Varmint Grenades and IMR 4064. The bullets are long for their weight and they don't shoot very well from my 6mm Rem or 243 Win (both 1:10) but my 1:8 6 CM really likes them.

The 2018 Hodgdon Annual has an article with data on the 6CM, as does the Spring Varmint issue put out by Rifle magazine (Wolfe). Nosler told me data was in the oven.
The varmint mag has a variety of powders and mostly lighter bullets.
What fresh Hell is this?
