I have a few new boxes of Berger 90 MT bullets, and was thinking of loading some up for my F-class 300yd matches. Can somebody help me with a shortcut, for what works well for you in your 6BR? Thanks for sharing a bit of your cherished secrets! Lol

90 gr Boat Tails I assume, right?
For shorter throats (0.070” free bore) I use 31.2gr H4895.
For longer throats it needs 32.0gr H4895 to be in tune.
Bullet ogive backed off 0.005” to 0.010” from touching the lands.
CCI-450 primers.

Have fun!

This works for me in a 26", 0.095" (+/-) freebore / 0.272" no-turn neck barrel:
  • Lapua Gold Box brass, annealed and FLS with a 0.266" bushing. 0.002" shoulder setback.
  • 29.0 grains of H4895
  • CCI BR4 Primer
  • 0 Jam
Hope this helps and have fun!
