6 UM Reloading Thread

[XR357]

Is the consensus for bushing size with ADG brass .270 or .271 or something else? Or does it matter? Need to order bushing(s)

Had the same question so I ordered both.

I’m using .272, works well, .0025-003 neck tension IIRC

Question for all…I don’t reload much at all. So I made the choice to have UM load me up my first batch of 6UM40 ammo. I asked for the “production load” and in the end they sent me loaded ammo with Standard 115 DTACs, NOT the nosering version. I’m trying to not lose my mind about this and make them replace it, since I think they should be fine to break in the barrel. But I figure I will only need ~75 to properly break in the barrel. So what kind of performance should I expect from the standard DTACs on game out of a 6UM40 for the rest of the ammo? Or…should I lose my crap and ask Unknown to replace them so I can get the expected performance? Or am I looking way too much into this?

Don’t shoot animals without the NR. Get a hold of UM and have them replace. You could use 20 of them to see how their standard load will shoot out of your rifle. Both have shot the same out of my rifles.
