1st 6BR

Thanks Mark,
That changes things, when I checked Berger's site, I looked target and hunting, not varmint, the 88 is still available also.

Hi there, I don't recall the distance that you plan to shoot at, My 6BR 1-8 by 30" shoots the 70 gr at 300 in less than 1 bullet vertical and the horizontal depends on how well I deal with the wind. At 600 I shoot the berger 105 VLD's with good accuracy and the 107 SMK's all shoot equally well. I use 30.5 gr of Varget, but must understand that I coat my bullets with DS2 which needs slightly higher load than naked bullets. Hope this helps.

Thanks Paul,
Went to the range today for grouping. Had one that went .145", 31.2gr Norma 203B, 95gr VLD, 205M, seated 2.739" with comparator, going to run with that for fun awhile. Will try to get the 88's to group sometime, or go lighter bullets????

Ran the gun down range, hit well to 700, never could find dope for there, went to 750 and shot what looked like a 1" group, so the gun will shoot!
Now I'll have to google for BR rules and see what I need to get the little man and myself competing.
FUN!!

I have a shilen select match 1/8 tw in a 6br & it's got about 2400 rounds through it & doing about .5 @ 200yds. Never ran any hot loads through it either.
