QUICK LOAD -- 6MM REMINGTON

[tdnichols]

I just purchased a rifle in 6mm REM that had loaded ammo with it. LOAD label says that the load is a 95gr. Nosler CT bullet with 45 gr of RE15. I can not find this load anywhere and I am waiting for reply from previous owner but I thought I would see if anyone that has qucikload could verify if this is a load for the 6mm Rem. It says 3100FPS. Thaks in advance

As you know QL ask for many different dimentions of you cartridge and barrel lenght. All I could input was a 95gr partition bullet with a 26" barrel. Along with you powder load of 45gr of rl 15. here are the results:

max pressure for a std 6mm rem is 65,000psi your load measures 81,906psi, you are almost 17,000psi over max pressure. lists the speed at 3,518fps

If you went with 41.5gr rl15 pressure would be 64,353 and would have you under max pressure by 647psi. if you ran 41.64gr of rl15 you pressure would be 64,980psi 20psi under max.Speed is listed at 3,307fps.

Hope that will help you.
