I tried them,they did ok but were not as accurate as my custom bullets.They may shoot better for you as every barrel likes something different.PERSONALLY I WOULD GIVE THEM A TRY FOR NOW TILL YOU CAN GET WHAT YOU WANT. yOU COULD ALSO TRY GUNBOT.COM AND SEE IF ANYONE HAS BERGERS IN STOCK.Sorry caps lock turned on.

I've had a similar experience with Barnes like Jon has. Yes I would give them a try.

So what 6mm bullets (other than Barnes) are you looking for and the purpose???

Cocopuff, my Savage Model 12 LRPV in 6BR loves them! (RBLP, 1 in 12" twist, 12-42 BR Nightforce)

I've just ordered another 1,000 of them from Sinclair (@ $19.99 per hundred). I load Lapua 6 BR brass (no neck turn) with 32.5 grains of Varget, CCI BR-4 primer, and Barnes 68 grain flat base Match Burners (Product #30205).

I shoot this load/gun at 100 & 200 yd BR for score in factory class. At a fun shoot last weekend I broke 5 out of 10 dum-dum suckers (with only 10 rounds on the table and no sighter shots) at 200 yards in moderate afternoon wind! For a rookie BR shooter, I'm pretty proud of these cheap Barnes bullets!

Great load in my gun! I hope these will work in your gun for your purpose! John

Cocopuff, forgot to mention-these Barnes Match Burners are seated 20 thousandths off the lands in my gun. Good luck, John
