started ordering parts

~35 grains of H4350, you'll be right about 2800 with a 105, the foundation stocks are great, stay away from soft hornady brass and don't push it hard. You'll be happy with the low node. 24" barrel won't get you the 2920 high node, so don't trash your brass trying. Plan on 28-32 moa to 1000 yards from a 100 yard zero depending on your scope height.

i have alpha brass already. i also have varget in my stash so will be starting with that
 
To add to that... My pet load is 34.1g varget.
Do you see any pressure signs at that? Im getting slight ejector marks at 34.0 Varget and 105 Bergers, 2890 FPS. I backed off to 33.6 and the thing is an absolute shooter right there at 2848 FPS. Love it.
 
should note i will be starting with berger 108 bt's. then changing to barts 105 hammer (im on the list)

None for me. 6GT was designed to get up into that 3100fps range... but each barrel is a little different. I'm using a Bat M.

33.6 was a pretty good spot for me as well.. wider node for sure.
 
first outing done
top left 109 eld factory, top right berger 108bt ladder 33.3-34.2 varget
bottom row berger 108bt 33.7, 34, 34.1 varget
