v max bul;lets in the 6mm ppc

looking at thoughts on this in the 58 grain and 65 grain v max for ground hog hunting out to a max range of 300 yards or so in my area.
 
I've used 70 gr. Nos.BTs in my 6mmAI Encore handgun for many years on groundhogs ( 744) out to 400 yds. I never was a fan of VMaxes, but both you suggested should work fine. Many choices on powder. Just have to experiment a little
 
I shoot a 55 gr Nosler BT in a similar capacity 6mm. It shoots bug holes. However, they do drop a tad if you are used to the hotrods running 3800+

But they are effective.

The best solution for that....don't tell the Dog. :)
 
I shoot 55gr NBTs and 58gr Vmax out of my 6x45 and 6mm/204 for coyotes, you should do well. 65s and 70s I save for javelina.

I have shot maybe 10 different bullets in my 14 twist 6BR for GH hunting.. I shoot the 58 GR Hornady as my favorite because they are always in the store and cheap. The 55 gr Nosler was surprizingly accurate, also 65 Bergers These bullets always shot under .400". 8208 and H322 good speed and accurate. Varget and R12 were 200 fps slower. Barts bullets always good but cost too much for killing a GH. Tried several 70 gr bullets that were difficult to find a good load but they were accurate with lighter loads.
