I’m in the process of gathering the required components to load for the 6 mm ARC .
I have a heap of H4895 and I’m struggling to find advice on what projectile weight would be best paired with the H4895 .
I realise that other powders are “ better “ in the ARC , but would like to use H4895 if possible.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
In a bolt gun or AR?
If in a bolt gun, I use 26.5gr with a 108 Berger btt, a 105 rdf, a 107 smk, or a 108 ELD for pretty good results. But that load is too hot for an AR. So back down from there.
 
H4895 might be a bit fast for heavies. Here are some QL predictions (ballpark suggestions; still rely on published load data)
