Reloading
6mm Creedmoor Load
Good evening. I am in the beginning stages of a 6mm Creedmoor build and am curious if there has been any loads folks have developed using the 89 gn Afterburner? I’ve scanned the interwebs but have not been able to turn anything up. Really curious to see what’s possible. Thanks!
30-06 velocity testing 135 Afterburner
Posting here some initial velocity testing for the 135 afterburner. Results were faster than expected when compared to similar weight bullets There were no signs of pressure, and although I'm not really one to push the limits, I'd bet there's room for more speed from this bullet. For myself, my desired velocity was 3200fps. Regardless, it's getting too late in the season here for further load development, so next step I'll load several rounds at 54 grains and see what the hogs think about it.

Neil,
Looking forward to some results on hogs! That 135gr is such a great little bullet to work with. Easy at the loading bench with the shorter tail, easy on the shoulder, slick in the air, and heavy on the business end.

Guys !! We are still accepting participants in the group buy effort. Let me know if you’re interested in 300 SAUM brass and I’ll get you on the list.
Thx

Thank you, Mark! This info will be extremely helpful when I get to working up a load for this rifle once it all comes together.
