6xc

  1. 260 Bobcat --> 6XC

    My grandfather recently got out of centerfire competition and he had a few hundred brass pieces of 260 Bobcat (6.5-250 Savage, I guess?). Some of them were formerly 22-250. About half of them are unprimed, so I got to thinking....could I transform them into 6XC? I'm not trying to accomplish...

  3. Berger 109 Hybrids anyone having good results in 6XC?

    i have read about the 109 hybrids but have come to the conclusion that these are not so popular in 6mm community so far nothing stellar, most use the Berger 105 hybrid and 108, the PRS guys use 110-115 from Hornady and Dtac. looking for some assurance with these 3000ct 109 hybrids thank you in...
  4. 6 XC at 1,000 yards

    It was a bumpy road to get here but attest I'm in my happy place with the 6xc. I finally took the 6xc out to 1,000 yards today and I also took my 284 Winchester to compare the two. The load for 6xc is Peterson brass, LF primers from Brunos, 112 Match Burners, 38.4 grains of H4350, and .020 jump...

  7. best 6mm varmint bullet in 8 twist

    I have read some threads about the best bullet for varmints in 6mm and they are usually lighter grains, anywhere from 60-80 grains. i am running a 6xc with 8 twist barrel and would like something a little heavier that will still fragment well. I see that the berger varmints stop around 80 grains...

  9. 6XC- looking for good groundhog bullet? Ideas?

    I don’t like shooting match bullets and I have a 1:8 twist. None of the Berger’s seem to match up. I’m not familiar with any others but I rule out pure target bullets because of ricochet ....I can shoot them out to 500yds or so....
  10. 6xc Help

    I recently built a 6xc and a friend of mine has one with the same issue. Problem being ES is extremely high when getting close to 3000 fps. We are both running 1:7.5 twist barrels using H4350, 105 bergers and Norma brass. If we stay around 37.5 grains of 4350 ES is single digits. Any thing above...

    I'm considering having a pre-fit (savage/bighorn) spun up in 6XC (not XC II) I've called my local guys and none of them have any 6XC reamer. Anyone have any input - who has a reamer than could make a small shank pre-fit? Let me know, Thanks, Ross

  15. 6XC load data for 80 GN sierra Varminters

    The only bullet Ive ever shot from my 6XC is the 107 Sierra. I'm taking it on a prarie dog hunt, and picked up some 80 GN Varminters. I have not successfully found any load data for this 80 Gn or much in the 80-90 range. All the data posted seems to focus on the 100+ gn bullets. Any one have...
  16. 6XC Powder alternative

    Hello Guys, European shooter here. Sadly my provider for Hodgon powders will not be able to deliver H4350 or any other Hodgon powder the next year because of a potential brexit. My plan was to use H4350 for my new 6XC shooting arround 105gr bullets. So as you might now the powders available...
  17. 6xc with light bullets and faster powders?

    Having just built my second 6xc I'm looking to load it for long range and mid range varmints. All the 6xc load data I have is for the heavier bullets......>90 grains. I have loaded many, many 105 class bullets in 6xc(1) and am looking to load something lighter in 6xc(2). Both my 6xc barrels...
  18. 6XC long term commitment continues......

    5 or 6 years ago I decided to try the 6mmXC....this was before the "Creed-craze" (I'm coining that phrase) and luckily it turned out to be the bee's knee's of a cartridge. I'm still shooting the original 6XC Criterion pre-fit barrel and it's still going strong. Today I sent an email to the...
  19. 6mm XC 115 DTAC Naked Bullet with H4350

    I am having a hard time with a 115 DTAC load for uncoated bullets in a 6XC. I started to try some loads found in search only to find out they were coated bullets. I have about 450 left in box and after I shoot those I am going to 105 or 107s. Anyone suggest a load to start with an uncoated...
