6mm NBR 105's and CFE 223. Any insight on forum?

[Sauer 150]

As said- anyone who has tried this combination and have some information to share?

In the other compact cartridges I have tried CFE 223 in yields VERY high MV for the caliber and nice groups with 223 and 308 with appropriate bullets.

Can you share the appropriate bullets with us? I am very interested in cfe223.

In 223 almost everything from 50-80 grs bullets. 3000f/sin 1-8" barrels and 69 grs bullets and very low pressure.

For 77-80 grs bullets just above the regular matchload of 24 grs Re 15.

In 308 155-175 match bullets. With stiff loads and 168's you can reach 2800f/s in 24" barrels with 60k pressure. Should put the 168 Hybrids back in the game as one of the go to 1000y bullets.

I've tried the CFE223 with 107gr SMKs, and was getting max vel of about 2650fps at 30.6gr of powder. This is with a 1-8 Savage F Class 6BR.

I've had more success with H4895 and RL15.....

Let us know what you find...
