6UM-30 Data

[Ryan Avery]

6UM-30
115 Dtacs NR
20" Ace barrel

I ran a five-shot string from 63 to 65 grains of VV N570. 65g will be too hot for most people. So, if we go with a round number of 3200 FPS with the 6UM30, it's around 90 FPS slower than a 6UM40 at comfortable pressures. This is data from one barrel, and more testing is needed. The data on the 40 is pretty solid, with seven different 20" barrels averaging 3290.

Did you guys ever try n565 with the 40 or 30 degree shoulder?
