Non-lead 6mm hunting bullets 100gr+?

[johnmventers398]

Hi folks.
I'm needing some recommendations for non-lead bullets

I am a contract deer controler in scotland and my main client has mandated the use of non lead bullets.

I have a load worked up with Cutting Edge but i cannot source them in the uk at the moment.

Do the folk here have suggestions as to brands i can look at.

The only consideration is that they have to be 6mm and have to be hunting and legally must be 100 grains or more.

Advice would be really appreciated

Thanks.

A 100 grain 6mm copper bullet would be longer than a whore’s dream. Heaviest I’m aware of is the Barnes LRX at 95 grains.

95 BARNES LRX is the heaviest i know of as well

Barnes, don't go up to 100 grn, so far. You might see what LeHigh Precision as in non lead/copper/brass bullets.

Cutting edge do a 100. As per my current load.
It seems that patriot arms also do a 100.
Im waiting on an email from. Patriot to se if they are willing to ship internationally.

Yeah thanks. Seems they are on par with barnes 85 or 90 only.

Look at Badlands Bulldozers and Bulldozer ll's, great BC and great performance. I don't know if they ship overseas but its worth a try. I shoot their 80gr also and they shoot real good. The standard 100gr Bulldozer its on their web sight but just ask them, there is also info about them on their Face page.

GS Custom bullets makes good bullets. I think they are originally out of South Africa.

The 75gr HV is n a nice bullet for a 6mm, I wont really go much heavier than that in 6mm.
I helped a local mono designer over here and the 75/76gr monos is where its at in 6mm

Glad you got what you needed. At a dollar a bullet, that sure is some seriously expensive 6mm shooting.
Like you said, the employer wants 100gr+ so you have few options.

Hammer also makes a 110 grain Hunter that requires a 6 twist, call Steve and he will spin some up
