6-284

I am sure this is been asked before but, I’m have acquired a 6 mm x 284 Remington action, 27 inch liga barrel, one in 12 twist. Plan on using Hornaday V max 75 and 87 grain bullets. I would appreciate any load data you could supply
 
If you have a fairly new hornady or hodgdon reloading manual or go to www.hodgdon.com , they may have it right online.
 
Hodgdon Manual has some good data for the 6mm-284, I'm shooting 80gr. Berger and H4831sc
 
Howdy Ya I shoot that bad boy/headache cartridge . Every bbl is different and I think looking at various reloading manuals is a great place to start. Re#17 worked great in my 26" Hart bbl 10"twist . Very poorly in my 30" Brux bbl with 8" twist.
 
I have a Cooper M-22 6/284 and load about 54grs. of N165 with a Sierra 80 gr. SBT. I can kill chucks easily over 400 yds. It has great accuracy and impact also.
 
H-1000 was the Vel King with 88 Ber/87 V-Max 3800 + 29.5" 12 twist bbl with avg./good accuracy 1/2" or better. V-165 and H-870 tops in accuracy (temp winter/summer) dependent and slower in vel. YMMV.
