6mm x 45 loads?
I am looking for some recommendations on loads for a 6mms x 45 (6mms x 223). They will be for an model 11 trophy Hunter with an Apache barrel 1 in 9 twist, 24", varmint contour for coyote, chucks, etc (some paper punching too). Thanks for any help or direction you guys can give me.

I like varget with 75gr sierra HP bullets and win primers.

John, What is your rate of twist?
-
1 in 9. Varmint72, how much Varget?

I'm using W-748 in both a 6x47 (6x222 Rem mag) and a 6 TCU (6x45 AI) with Rem 7 1/2 primers and 80 gr Hornady bullets.

I built my 6x45 in 2011. I run a 1/10" twist, 24" McGowan SS bbl and have had ZERO issues with any bullets from 55g to 95g.
I also have a BHW 22" SS p3 1/10" bbl and it shoots the same.
My go to powder for 55-70g is Exterminator and with 80-95g H335.
I settled on the above after many test rounds and chrony runs.
All these powders will work fine:
w748/h335/benchmark/varget/imr4198/h4198/aa2015/10x/x8208
I have way over 400 coyotes and 15 antelope to it and more paper targets that I can count.
Pushing 4k rounds and every load still goes under moa @ 100-400 yds....whats not to like!

6mm TC/U minimum loads would be a good starting point for the 6x45
