6BRX loads

[distinguished]

I am looking for load data for 6BRX. I am thinking of using 105gr Bergers. Please state whether you use moly or plain bullets. Thanks.

Take a look at the thread on Dasher loads in this section of the forum as the Dasher and the BRX have very very close case capacities and can almost use interchangeable load data.

I have some load/chrono data (for the Dasher at this link too):

I have a `1:8 F-class with a 26" barrel and savage action. Try Varget around 33 grains, 105 VLDs, Lapua Brass, Wolf SRM primers. I'm getting 3030 fps average, .45" groups at 200yds. My first 60 shot 600 yd match yielded me a 592-26Xs and averaged a 3.5" group at a 600 yd bench rest match 2 weeks later. I have found the 105s like to be jumped, at least in my gun. I started my development at 32.6 grs and worked up my loads from there.
I also have good luck with the 107 MKs.
Attached is the initial results..Hope they help.

Start Low and go Slow......Be safe......

I have a savage 2 screw single shot target action and Kreiger 28" barrel. My load is 32.5 of Varget, Berger 108BT, SRM primers, loaded .010 off the lands. Spectacular shooter. Shot many 4 shot groups in the .1s and 5 shot groups in the .2s off a not very good range set up.

I just found a decent load for my savage brx. i shot it yesterday to test grouping a little. It was 32.6-33gn rl15 and the best was between 32.7-33 with the sierra 107 just touching the lands and cci benchrest primers. the groups were between 3/8" and 5/16" at 100. the cronograph was all screwd up so i didnt get fps.

Thanks guys. I tried a few loads with moly 107 sierra bullets and this rifle just shoots ragged holes at 200yds. Going to try the Bergers next.
