Hammer Hunter Load Data, (See page 1, Post 8)

Why not the 6mm Remington it is a better round than the needmoore.
Assuming you're replying to my last post. I like the 6mm Remington it's a nice cartridge I would rather own one over a 243 personally.
"Better" is subjective here if by better you mean more powder capacity and therefore slightly faster yes it's "better".
I think the 6mm creed is a wonderfully balanced cartridge it is truly home in a short action where as the 6mm Remington is not. Also brass availability is abysmal for the 6mm Remington whereas creedmoor brass is available everywhere and can readily be made from 6.5 creed and 22-250 brass if needed.
If Winchester chambered this rifle in 6mm Remington I would've just as eagerly bought it.

Wow BB. You got these things figured out. Gonna have to hire you for load development. 😉
 
Very good! Good shooting!
You didn't happen to get a speed did you?
And by the way, the tipped 25 cal is a 95gr. bullet. The standard HH is 92 gr.

Nice update to the .240 Wby and .243 Win twist rates, but no update on the .257 Wby or .270 Wby. :(
