6BR with a 1-14'

[rednek]

I'm just gonna load up some test ammo for my soon to be completed 700SA, 1-14" twist, 26". 70g matchkings, and 58g v-max will be my test subjects just because I have a bunch around. I have H335,and IMR3031 around, and am looking for something that meters a little better out of my thrower. Any suggetions?

I have a 6BR with a 26" 14 twist barrel. I have had great success with 65 and 68 gr. bullets using VV N135. I have tried many different bullets and powders. I think you will find the 58 gr. bullets too short and light for good accuracy. 70 gr. bullets might be on the top end of the weight scale for the best accuracy.
The bullets I'm using are 68 gr. Euber and 65 gr. Vmax. I continue to be amazed with how well the Vmax shoots for such an inexpensive bullet. Good luck with your new rifle.

v-135 is the gold standard for 14 twist 6 br. It meters better than most. 32.5 gr with 65 v-max or 68 match bullets should shoot 1's or 2's.
