6BR, do you like BR-4 or CCI-450 better for heavy bullets

I think more of it depends on powder used. I see more guys shooting BR4 with Varget and 450 with RE15. Now this is 1000 yard BR, but I get to see a whole bunch of 6MM'S shot. Matt
I agree with this.
Not BR, but one Dasher- 105 hybrid, H4895 likes a 450
Other Dasher, 110 sierra, RL 16 loves a 205M
Maybe bullet used factors in too, but that is over my paygrade.

I cannot afford CCI BR primers;)
 
This is what I saw with Varget and 105 Hybrids in my 6BRA

Actually no, I used the 205M. It was really almost a coin flip.

I’m currently doing some load testing with 107 SMKs and 108 Berger BTs. I’ll have a chance to revisit this test again with those bullets
What happened when you stretch them out, did they open up and go vertical?
 
When I buy a house and get mh shop back up and going one day... I want to try 450s in the BR. Been running br4s and it stacks thrm at 100, bug have done much load development... i fould a load that they bugholed at 100 then let my wife start shooting it for deer and targets.

Gift it to the little woman and start a another for yourself (BRA that is)

I'm saving the 450s little something extra for a load I'm working on.

Ah I built it for her, its her gun... I just fell in love with the 6BR after doing it though. I want to build another, but im still working on wearing out a 6XC barrel.

Didn't you have that 260 Remington that shot a dime a 300
