What is the lightest flat base bullet on the market?
I'd guess the 60 gr. Sierra HP

Berger has 4 different 60g bullets that are flat base. There are 2 MEF's one with moly and one w/o and then 2 of the smaller HP one with moly and w/o. They also sell 62g bullets and don't list BT's until 65g.

I'd second the notion of using a Berger 60gr. MEF bullet in your PPC. I use it in my 6BR which is very close to your 6PPC. I shoot a fast 1:8 twist as well but with 34gr. of Varget the 60 MEF shoots VERY well and is pretty fast at around 3700 fps (27" tube).
