Looking for some load data using DTAC 115 6mm. for the .243 Win. Just finished a build with a Criterian HB match 30" 1:8 barrel, Savage dual port target/match action on a bedded RMF stock. I've used H4350, H1000 and H4831 getting my best results with H4350 @ 38.5 Grains. About 1 3/4" @ 400 yards. No question it can perform better than that. So without refining the load to reduce it's print area, I was hoping to get some data using IMR 7828, RE 22/25 and/or H4895 in hopes of finding the "sweet powder" as opposed to unnecessary refinement. Love options. Any help/advice is appreciated

Hodgdon's # 26 manual had info on 115 grain Barnes RN bullets..that may be the most you are going to find with that bullet weight..

contact David Tubb and see what he recommends since it is his bullet..

final option, I run Berger 115s in a fast twist 6mm Rem.. and just worked up a load utilizing data for 105 and 107 grain bullets..however out of a 24 inch barrel and on a long action, I was able to launch them at 3250 fps using RL 19...

I forgot about that 115 Barnes RN. I'll have to go my archives and see if I have it. I talked with Dave this morning and he told me what I thought he would in that; he avoids giving out to much info and the info he gave me was old news. I understand his concern 100%. Your idea about working up based on the 107 data was my next option. Probably start in the middle somewhere and keep checking the cases for any signs of heat. Thanks.. Cool
