Yes, I do. But I shoot 70 grs bullets, so I'm not sure my data would be much help to you?

Looking at ordering a barrel in 6 BR for a Ruger VT action...

been debating the merits of a one in 14 twist, a one in 12, or a 1 in 8...

I personally wanted the 6mmBR for short range work, so shooting heavy bullets out of a 1:8 was not attractive to me.

I chose 1:12 over 1:14 for greater versatility. 1:10 would also have been an option with 90 grs bullets.

Lapua Brass
CCI BR-4
VIHT N-135 30.5 GR
SEATING DEPTH: didn't mic it, but about 1/3 cal
sub .5 grps at 100

Accuracy at 30.2 to 30.7. Didn't bring my chono because of shooting time limitations.

No pressure signs. Good summer time load.

thanks rc
