Most accurate bullet you have shot? (6mm)

[kris bassett]

Like it says, what is the absolute most accurate 6mm bullet you have shot? Does not matter what weight.

well different rifles shoot different bullets differently that’s the best answer i can give sorry .

Some competitive shooters have been encouraging me to buy some custom made bullets for the most consistent accuracy.

Probably the Berger 108 bt for me out of a 6br. I'd guess when the responses start flowing in you'll see a lot from hottenstien, barts, and bibs in the 68 grain variety.

Custom 66 gr bullets in my 6PPC. Many groups in the low 1's. 52 gr Bergers were amazing in my old .22Waldog. Lots of groups in the 1's as well.

The most accurate 6mm bullet I have ever shot was Sierra's 85 gr. B.T.-H.P. Game King.

Lot's of groups in the mid 0's - .062 .084 .032 - (my best 5 shot group to date) etc...

I shoot 12 different 6mm chambering / cartridges and the above mentioned Sierra bullet is the most accurate bullet in all chamberings.

What twist are those 12 and is that over substantially different fps or roughly the same ?

Cheek 66 grain 6mm
Ross Sherman 52 grain 224

For short range. Berger ND “New Die“. Eunice Berger won a Super Shoot with those. Early Bruno OO’s. Neither are available anymore. I think I have a box or two of the ND’s left and mby 10K of various lots of the OO’s.

Twist rate runs from 1-8" to 1-13" twist.

Cartridges range from the 6mm B-R to the 244 H&H, so there is quite a spread in velocities from the smallest to the largest.

ive got to go for 68 gr berger target fantasic in my rifle b.s

 

[kris bassett]

Any of you shooting the Berger column?

As some have said before, different rifles like different bullets also, accuracy requirement differ depending on the application. I require more accuracy from my prone rifles than I do my hunting rigs. Benchrest shooters need a higher degree of accuracy than all other disciplines lumped to together. With that said, I'd never take a BR bullet hunting. Tell us more about your intended application and hopefully you will get some more specific input.
I hope this helps,

barts 105gr hammer.

 

[Cfshooter]

I have not tried any custom bullets but Berger 105 hybrids seem to shoot great in many 6’s, may not be the best, but they always just seem to do very well.

 

[CJ6]

Barts 65gr.

 

[ranger3]

For me, it’s 105 Berger hybrids, 105 Hornady BTHP, and 87 VMAX in both my dasher and 243

 

[Mark W]

Pretty much any custom bullet. Several different bullets from Barts have been consistently high performers for me.

In factory bullets, I’ve had good luck with several bullets from Sierra. There are more green boxes on my shelf than yellow boxes.

Berger 90 grain.

 

[Liven The Dream]

105 Berger HB in my Dashers.
From 200 -1000 yards ?
