powder preference for 6BR

[rjtfroggy]

What is your choice for 6br, VV130, 133 or 135 using Berger 80gr. or Berger 105gr.? I was using IMR 4895 but I'm changing over to VV powders.

I like VV powders and with those to choose from 135 would be my choice however I won’t leave Varget it’s simply the best.

I shoot N 150 in mine. My load is 30.2 with a 103 bullet

Varget for 105's in 1/8" twist and N-133 for 66's in 1/14" twist. H-322 actually grouped a little tighter than N-133 but, like you, I am trying to cut back on number of powders. Not giving up on Varget, though.

For your 80 grainers N-135 would be good and N-140 for the 105's. JMO

I've used N540, N150 and N140 with 105's. Yes, Varget for a long time, until I couldn't get it. Then went to VV and haven't gone back.

68-80s N135

80-90 N140

You won’t be going back!

I've been using 30gr Varget under Berger 105gr Hybrid Targets with underwhelming results. I ran an OCW last week, I'm going to lose 1gr and give it another try.

I have a lb of H4895 inbound, just in case.

A couple guys have suggested RL 15.5 as well.
