Here's a low pressure accuracy load that we developed for my brother-in-laws 27" 9&1/4tw 6br Norma, the data shown was taken from QuickLoad.
Vmax87 - H4895/28.6gr - CCI BR4 - Lapua oal @ 2.300 = 47579psi @ 2870fps for a 92.6% case fill & 97.8% powder burnt.,note: max load is list as 30.6gr @ 57577psi @ 3042fps - 99.1% fill & 99.2% burnt rate.)
I might mention that the groups started to open a little as he increased the powder charge. This mild load enabled high volume shooting in the PD towns without experiencing the barrel ever getting to hot to hold your hand on it. The prairie dogs didn't seem to notice that they were being exterminated at under 3000fps.
