New to me 6 creedmoor

[DLT]

I had a 6 creedmoor get out of my hands a few years ago but it’s returned home with very few rounds down the tube. It’s a complete factory savage model 10t-sr. 8 twist 26” with an accustock. I have some 87vmax, 103 eldx and 105 hornady match bullets, new adg brass, h4350 and r-16. I tossed a middle of the road load of 40.0 h4350 and the 103 together it shot a 2” group at 200. Not good. Loaded that charge again with the 105 match it shot an 1” at 200 went up to 40.5 it shot a 7/16” 3 shot group. Tested that again with a pulled shot it still measured 1” same point of impact. Do I load up and down from there so see exactly where the node is ? Hopefully it will hold together. I have some 107 smk coming in. Will be used banging steel 800yds and in

Very difficult to tell from just that info and not seeing the target. But, I'd start a ladder test at 40.5 and go up in .5 increments. Do you have a chrono? It will help to determine the most stable load. It will also help to see the groups from the ladder test so you can compare the vertical POI.

I have one but it’s a magnetospeed so I don’t use it at all until I have a load figured out just for getting my speed.

I recieved an email back from them today. They said they have not made any standard case head brass since 2020 and did not have plans to do so in 2023. Next year she said they would talk to their dealers and evaluate if there is a demand for that brass. 22 creedmoor, 6creedmoor, 6.5creedmoor, 260 rem, and 308. I told her there was a need for that brass we as shooters liked having quality options
