Bolt gun 6mm ARC 105-110grns bullets and VV powders?

Tell that to 99.999% of the 6.5 creedmoore fans.

Why? The Creedmoor was built as a bolt gun first.

Not at all.. It was designed for the ar10 platform from the beginning. No need to bicker over it. All the info is at your fingertips.

Well considering I shot for Hornady and got the info when it was being developed in 2007 by the guy developing it I have to disagree but you can believe what you like. It was developed for the bolt gun and using a 28" barrel in particular. It was later used in the semi auto platforms.

Could you post up the 105 and N135 data? Thanks

Just looked back on the email response I received from them. There was no data for N135 for either of the bullets I inquired about but their was a response in that regards.

". We do not offer data for use with N135 since more powder is needed than there is available internal case capacity to hold all of the needed powder and then still have enough room to even be able to seat a bullet under what would be excessive compression of the powder."

Which I find a bit hard to believe because I know I've read here of people using the n135 in other short 6mm cases. Sorry! There is data for the N133 and N140.

No problem but I agree it's weird as being a faster powder it would use less powder than the N140 which there is load data for. I actually dropped an email in asking for 108 and 110 data with N135 so we will see what happens.

Pass it along when you get it.

I just bought the N135 because I was told it worked well in 223 which is primarily what I was shooting until I obtained the ARC bolt rifle. Now I'm wishing I would have bought either of the others, 133/140

Will do. The N140 didn't work well for me as the velocities were very slow. I have both N135 and N140 on hand and figured I would try the N140 first.
