The 6UM

[Dhughes]

What is your load for the 95. I am getting a 18” 6-saum done for the 90 grain game changer and would like a idea of what powders are going to be best
Thanks

I’m running reloader 26.

Maybe I missed it, but has anyone ran the Hornady 80gr ELD-VT in the 6UM?

That makes 2 of us!

Probably not. What is the point? It would be functionally equivalent to the 62gr ELD-VT from a 22CM.

More knock down thermal hunting is my thought, I did find Dhughes post of 3750 with them out of a 20" which puts them right there with my 22CM with 53gr vmax's.

Knockdown there's the fn dumb word again. You want knockdown? Get a 500 Jeffery, it has knock down on both ends!

If you do, a capacity-to-bore ratio its a little better than a 28 Nosler. SO if I am really nice to it, I think I can get 800 rounds or better.

My version uses cubic inches of case capacity divided by the bore diameter (in inches) squared, which becomes a dimensionless number.

The ratio could also be derived from ml and mm.

I’m pushing the 62gr. ELD-VT @3500 in my 20” 22 Creed. Of course built by the men over at Procision Arms.

That’s a very high performance combo.
