6mm Saum load data

[Ron Guesanburu]

looking for a starting point for my 6 saum? I'm going to use 110 atips or one of the 115gr bullets. Im looking at using
H1000 or RL 26 or maybe something slower. My brass is 6.5 bertum brass necked down and barrel is Shilen 1 in 7 at 26in. and will be suppressed!

awesome thanks that should give me a good starting point !!! Is that SST pretty close to the saum case? I've looked at them cases but couldn't remember

 

[b6graham]

same parent case. of sorts

What kind of barrel life those this round have?

 

[b6graham]

15 grains more powder and 300fps more than a 1,200 round 6Creed barrel and that's a 6SST not even a full SAUM

i wouldnt expect to break 1k

just as an idea of barrel life....the last 6creed a shot 105 hybrids at 3220 and it was done at 850 rounds.
