What is COAL?
At this time I'm unable to measure the chamber with my Hornady comparator tool as I haven't got a modified case, so it's loaded to appx spec coal for the round. 2.82

My understanding is to load the 6 cm to 2.80. No problems feeding from a small action box.At this time I'm unable to measure the chamber with my Hornady comparator tool as I haven't got a modified case, so it's loaded to appx spec coal for the round. 2.82
This is the method I use (Hope it is ok that I post this).At this time I'm unable to measure the chamber with my Hornady comparator tool as I haven't got a modified case, so it's loaded to appx spec coal for the round. 2.82
I have no problems with feeding. The 6 CM uses the same box as a 6.5 CM.My understanding is to load the 6 cm to 2.80. No problems feeding from a small action box.
Thanks. I can also make my own modified case to fit my comparator in about the same amount of time.This is the method I use (Hope it is ok that I post this).
Make Your Own Length To Lands Gauge
I'm putting together a 6mm build and just settling on a caliber. I was debating between the 6x47 lapua and 6mm creedmoor. The reason the 6mm creedmoor is on the list is for factory ammo. Just nice if you don't have time to reload
Sable have you tried the Peterson brass?
I've also run the Peterson brass and am thoroughly impressed with it for half the price of Lapua in 6.5 CM. Also each 50 pieces come with their own Ammo case for your loads. Nice stuff!Yes, I bought 50 pieces to test and torture. So far I'm through the third round of reloads on the first ten pieces. I gained just a tiny touch in case capacity after the first loads then everything stabilized. Pockets are all tight and there is no growth in the length. These are not mediocre loads either. I like to run at the highest node for the best velocity vs best accuracy. Extraction is easy, no sticking.
The 6CM uses less powder to throw a 105gr at 3000fps. I'm using 48-50gr in my .243 to get there. Also, the shape of the shoulder on the case seems to have an affect. Like focusing, the gas concentration inside the brass neck vs blasting the throat directly.i fail to see how you can move a 100 to 105 at 3,000+ fps out of two different cases (.243 Win & 6 CM for our discussion here) and have one (6CM) give less throat erosion consistently with multiple barrels over the other (.243 Win).
I understand that one type of barrel may last longer then another, but I am talking longer life consistently over various barrel makers. How is this possible with the laws of physics?
