6mm Rem ackley 10t loads 87vmax

[chuckshooter]

looking for loads suggestions for 6mm AI 10t with 87gr vmax,

this is my third Krieger 10t barrel on this action and I am having some trouble with my groups, my go to load for the previous two barrels has been 48 to 49 grains of RL17 with the 87grvmax, I have some imr4831 and some h4350 to try next,
I have a lifetime supply of 87vmax so, I want to stay with that bullet.

Ive had great luck with H4831sc and a 90 tgk, 26" barrel. 3500 FPS, tiny little groups.

I have some 4831sc, i will try it. Thanks

Run H-4831 in my 6mm ai with 80 grain fowlers, and it shoot's really well over most anything else I tried..

The 6mm AI I have is a 14 twist so my bulllet of choice is a 75gr. V max with agood load of IMR 4064. Good luck.

Another vote for H-4831 / H-4831sc.

I'm not a big fan of the 87 v-max, only because there are more accurate bullets out there like the Sierra 85 gr HPBT Gameking. But if you already have tons of the 87's and they don't shoot good with H-4831sc then I'd be worried.

I got to the range yesterday and shot a couple of 3/8 size groups with both h4831sc and old imr4831. they shot the same group size and velocity per weight charge. within 2 fps, that's very remarkable. A little on the slow side compare to what I had before. 3218 fps avg. vers my old load was 3550. I can live with slow, maybe my barrel will last a little longer. thanks to all for your input. I think next time I will go ahead and put a 8t on it. I have one sitting around not being used, so just need the motivation.
