6mm Creed Load Data

[Kmccord]

I'll be the oddball and give you something different from H4350. I use 41.4 grs. of IMR 4350 w/Federal 210's behind 108 Hornady ELD-M's. The SD is 8 and I'm getting an average of 3076 fps. When I ran a 10 shot group the barrel only had about 100 rds. on a Seekins Havak HIT and it is only getting better. I took this load out to a 1760 last weekend without issue.

Awesome group, thank you for the information.

I believe I have found a nice load for this one at 41.3gr of H4350 five rounds just over a dime and covered by a penny.

How long is your barrel on this? Is this one of the older 3 Grooves or is the new 5 groove they now make? They changed about 1.5 years ago.

I will have to go back and check, but I believe it is three groove, I purchased the barrel in May 2023.

Nice, good luck on it, mine wasn't happy as it could be using Hornady Factory ammo, only when I did hand loads did I really see a big difference.

 

[JAYgs8163]

No Hornady for me. I already have a good supply of 105 Bergers that should be just fine.

@JAYgs8163 here is the 6 Creed I built. It has a 7.5 twist barrel, 750 Taperless PBB with spiral fluting.

Very nice sir. Like the components also. Those Kelbly actions are fantastic!!! Looks to be a shooter, nice trigger work. What barrel length did you go with? The 750 Taperless is a very nice profile they offer and I wish some others offered it. I've not found anyone else doing them as a standard option in 750 or 810 taperless.

I believe you and I chatted in detail a while back about the barrel?

24 inch is what I used, I do like those Kelbly actions, the mechanical ejector is nice, no removing when finding the lands. I have built on a Terminus Kratos Lite, they are nice as well.
