anyone shoot 6mm gt ?

Yes, I'm shooting a 6GT. Apparently it's being SAAMI standardized and Hornady is introducing a factory load with a new 109gr ELD bullet, but I haven't seen any good case prints out there yet. I've been using a trim length of 1.720" because that's what the Hodgdon load data site says, but that's the only mention I've been able to find. There is a long thread in the reloading section of The Hide on the GT if you're interested in what loads folks are using.

I don't think Hornady has Intro'd the load yet, and the only place I've seen it was the bulk pre-order at GAP:


For loads, I'm currently using 112gr Match Burners over 6.5 StaBall and Varget. From that thread on The Hide, it looks like most folks are using Varget, H4350, RL16 or StaBall.
 
Below is a diagram showing dimensions, the interweb is full of all kinds of info if you search for it.

That chamber drawing is out there and better than nothing I suppose. I don't know about the OP, but when I was looking it was for the cartridge drawing portion of what's usually included in the SAAMI posting, see the 6ARC attachment for an example. I haven't seen that in my fancy interwebs searches though, got a link?

Send an email to Alpha Munitions. They make the brass so they oughta know. Yes I know that Hornady made the first batches... but Alpha will likely be more helpful
