Which bullet w/ a .105 freebore? (6BR)

I picked up a prefit barrel for my ARC Nuke. It was a really good price, so I dont mind tailoring the bullet to the existing freebore instead of vice versa. Not really a competition shooter, just like banging steel and printing tiny little groups. The barrel has a .105 freebore - which heavy class bullet would be suggested? Ive read it may be too long for the 105 hybrid, but the 107 SMK and 108 ELDM would be just about right - any truth to that?
 
108 Bergers, N140 (preferred, for me) or Varget will do awesome for you 300 yds plus.. very easy bullet to tune with great accuracy

for 100 to 300 yds, the 80 Berger with N135 is killer

Winny, all the bullets you mentioned will should shoot fine in that freebore. What brand prefit and contour, length is the barrel?
 
I have used most of the bullets you can get in 6mm and the sierra 70gr blitz king is far and away the best performer for me in my 6xc. Have shot several coyotes with it and no exit holes.
 
My Dasher, (about same OAL as a BR) has a .126 freebore, 105 and up to 108’s should be fine. I don’t shoot 109, 110, 115’s yet so I can’t speak to them. (I only shoot 108 Berger’s, great bullet)
