I built a 22-6mm this past year and finally got around to working up loads for it. I am shooting a hornady 75gr bthp. Here is a picture of a 5 shout group at 100 yrds

That is a wallet group lol They kept laddering and so I kept bumping the charge .2 grains. The build is a Brux 1 in 8 twist 27 in barrel on a 700 action with a jewell trigger. Built by Garland Gilbreth. Its topped with a Vortex viper 6-24 scope. I will upload a picture soon.

I havent Cronographed them yet. I plan to this next week. I am shooting 48.2 grains of reloader 22. about .3 over the max load in the Hornady manual. I have no pressure signs. The book says 3600 fps but that is with a little shorter barrel. If I had to guess I would say closer to 3700 fps but I will know more next week.

I would say that you might, just might be getting it close to dialed in. Nice shooting.


Are you going to pull those pistols, or whistle Dixie?
