6mm BR suggested load.

I have recently purchased a 6br pistol built on a trued xp action with a 1.350 14 twist 14" Lilja barrel on it. Due to the rate of twist I have bought 200 Berger 65gr Match Grade FB bullets. I will be shooting 300yd matches for the most part, with the occasional 200/300 yard match mixed in during the season. I would like to hear some opinions on how to seat the bullets in respect to distance from the lands, or lack thereof, and also some suggested loads. I have a few powders including H322, Varget, Re15, H4198, IMR XBR8208, H4895, just to name a few. I also have plenty of Rem 7 1/2 primers, but the store 1/2 mile from my house has CCI brs and Win 205s. Anybody having any experience with pistols have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Chris
 
No expierience with 6BR pistols but....
I always start light 6mm Bergers .010" into the lands. Might not end there but I've found its a good place to start.
Short barrel should yield best velocity/results with the faster burn rate powders.
H-322
H-4198
Maybe even the 8208XBR

Hodgens Reloading Data Center has pistol loads for the 6BR Remington. A good place to start.
