6gt with 80gr ELD-VT

[RAMhunter123]

Leaning on this groups collective expertise! Does anyone have experience loading the new Hornady 80gr ELD-VT in the 6gt cartridge? Going to start out with testing Varget and go from there but thought I would see if anyone had advice/recommendations. Thanks for your time!

Hodgdon states to start with 32.1gr Varget with the 80gr Barnes with COAL of 2.390. You can try a ladder and see where you get pressure.

Thanks for the starting point!

Run them in a dasher. Settled around 3240 with 24" proof barrel and varget. Should work real well for you.

I have them loaded in a 6Predator GAS Gun and hope to try them this week.
