6bra primer test, which load would you choose?

[BoydAllen]

While not 6BRA input, in my 6Dasher's over the years when testing 400's -v- 450's, I have repeatedly seen 400's to produce slight velocity increases of 4 to 8-fps over 450's from 105-class bullets from 4895, Varget, RL15, N140, etc powders. But have on occasion pierced 400's, which is why I have used 450's and it's thicker cup almost exclusively.

I thought that the thickness for the 205M looked a little off, so I did a little research and according to multiple sources it is .0225. https://www.google.com/search?clien...UQIHfs2CycQ1QJ6BAg_EAE&biw=1280&bih=773&dpr=1

On a primer test my 6.5cm liked cci400s more than 450s. After two primers let go I switched to br4s, same load shoots great.

It was likely a "type-o". I updated the chart to 0.225" cup thickness for the 205M

You have them. Test, use them. Or, why did you buy them? It's amazing what you learn if you actually test things yourself. Seems to be pretty unpopular though.

Someone finally said it!!!!!!

Thank you

One of my guns made the switch to 400s.
The other will stay with the 450s. After two tests. It was pretty obvious
