We have a club member shooting these bullets competitively in registered F Class matches at mid range in a 6mm Norma BR. He routinely shoots high master scores and logs quite a number of “cleans” in competition.

Thank you for your reply , i just didnt know of anyone using them . But that dont mean anything either

Not 6mm 105s but I called Nosler regarding 6.5mm 140 RDFs. Nosler recommended -.050 to -.060 off. At 600yds shot as well as 123SMKs

I assume that would be a good starting point for the 105 RDFs, assuming you have sufficifant freebore to avoid possible pressure issues.

The gentleman that I described in my original response personally told me that he jumps the 6mm 105’s 0.030.

I have always run little neck tension and had my bullets into the lands . I never had much consistency other wise . So any info yall want to share with me , im all ears . Just open and willing to listen

I have used 105 RDF's in a Dasher and 140 RDF's in a 6.5 CM. I got un-explained flyers with both. Weight sorting showed 0.9 grs variation with the 105's and 1.1 grs with the 140's. Weight sorting did result in many fewer off call shots at 600 yards but I only use the ones I have left for practice. I think the PRC guys may use more of them.

The 130 gr. RDF was not good in my 260AI either.

I have shot them and loved them but they are just too expensive now.

I have in my drawer 105 RDF bullets I've shot them to over 1000 yards in my .243Win. Mine our the blems, so take it for what it's worth....I had slight flyers at 100 yards. 600 yards over 12 inches out of the groups. At 1000 yards the flyers were the worst, a couple close to 2 mil out of the groups.

The 77 RDF in my 7tw, 223 Urbanrifleman barrel at 850 shoots under moa. These are also blems. Go figure.

My 2 cents, random d*nm flyers, used them in two different 6mm, a XC and BR.. Tried the 140 grs in 260 rem. same results so I gave up on them. Just not consistant in my testings nomatter what COL I tried.
