Your favourite 6mm bullets 105gr+ ?

[Tangent]

Interested to hear what you're all using and finding performs well. Do you see much difference between weights and brands to justify price differences? Can you level the playing field by weighing and sorting the cheaper brands?

Berger 105 hybrid
Sierra 107
DTAC 115

Sierra 107

Would you say they're all equally accurate?

Hornady 108 ELD-M or 110 ATip are my 6mm bullets of choice now. Both work great but the ATip has a better BC.

I'll pick the 105 Hybrid every time. I don't have enough time with the 115's to opine.

Others here much more experienced than me.
I believe the correct answer would be depending on what you intend to shoot, competion, Critters, steel, paper punching, at what distance.. Valuable answer's, with some extra information.

Have a great day..

Interesting as the A-Tips cost about double the price of the ELD-Ms here.

Personally I just shoot targets to 600m with the occasional 1,000m. However I like to hear all experiences, gives me a better context.

I have been considering custom bullets as Bergers are pretty much an extinct species over here. The customs are also cheaper.

Then try out the108 ELDs. I have shot them past 1000 in matches without a problem.

Thanks I'll have to give them a go.

My vote is for the 105 Hybrids. I have that bullet running in multiple 6mms and it just plain works. I use it for targets as well as long range hunting and it performs very well at both tasks. The 107 Sierra is a close second.

 

[Heman]

105/107 Nosler CC for mid 105 Hornady bthp shot well also
105 Hyb for long (1000) but got to expensive so now 105 rdf which shoots the same

 

[mongo chicago]

87gr. Hornady v-max for mid range prairie dogs (600 yards and under)
105 gr Hornady v-max for long range (1000 yds)

 

[Bill Norris]

Bart's 105 gr. & Tubb's 115 gr.

 

[Dave Way]

If you leave out 103’s you’re missing some of the very best. Bart, Vapor Trail and Roy Hunter(now produced by Wheeler Accuracy) produce the bullets winning most LR Bench-rest matches these days.

Interesting that many prefer using the 105 hybrids. I’ve had better results using the original 105 VLDs. Perhaps I have not figured out how to best tune the hybrids?

 

[Gabe22BR]

BART’s-

105 Gunginr
105 Hammer
103 Hammer
Everything else is fireforming, Hornady, Sierra, Bergers, Nosler, Speer…
Now I do use Nosler 32gr 20cal in my little 20.. they pretty accurate..running 3897-4017fps..

I’ve shot thousands of the plain Berger 108gr Target BT, and they are my favorite midrange bullet. Nothing fancy, but they are X ring eating machines.

They seem hard to find at the moment.
