6mm Berger 120 LRHT

[Treelineasassin]

Only one way to find out… I know the 109 LRHT & 144 LRHT kill really well with a fast muzzle velocity out to moderate ranges.

Open up the meplat with a 0.040 wire drill bit, instant carnage!

Ehh I don’t like what bergers do on animals. I’m sure this will be thee comp bullet though soon enough

If I could find any I'd be testing ASAP.

They don't interest me in the 6 CM, I know they'll shoot slow AF. But they definitely interest me in the 6PRC like you have.

Quit shooting them at dasher speeds and watch the magic happen

I bet they'd be 3000+ in my 6 PRC easily.

Too much noise

I’m retired from the Lapua bolt face game . I decided I’ll never need more than a long action magnum…. Probably lol

Looks like these are going to line up with the 116gr TMK data.

6mm Creedmoor:

120gr LRHT 44gr H4381SC is 2700fps 16” barrel 2.800”

116gr TMK 44gr H4381SC is 2700fps 16” barrel 2.800”

Drops are .1mil higher due to BC.

Mine are gonna go 3k+, should be a good combo.

How’d they shoot?

How’d they shoot?

I shot offhand at steel just to get some data. I'll shoot a dot prone tomorrow and circle back.

Gotcha. Appreciate you sharing the info

 

[waspocrew]

Mine will be here on Friday. Waiting on my 6 PRC barrel, so might be a month or two before I can try them out.

Quite a story

 

[Nine Banger]

How’d they shoot?

They're fine.

Gun is zeroed for 112 match burner. 16" bbl. 1:7.5" 2000 DA today.

That's average shooting for me. Hot and distracted.

I'll save a 20-40 to shoot some deer. I only bought 100.

44gr H4831sc is the end of the road for 6mm Creedmoor.

I loaded these at 44.5gr. Shot great but too hot.





16" PBB 1:7.5" bbl.

Great velocity in that barrel though

Great velocity in that barrel though

Yeah, I bet I can get that same velocity without pressure with H4350 but I just don't like the case fill and punchiness with that powder so I've been in a groove with H4381SC.

These things are slippery enough that it seems like all it's going to take to get Quick Drop to 600 yards at sea level is 2675fps.

Our DA probably won't be back to 0 until October or November.

 

[Nine Banger]

I put 20 on it.

These don't suck.
