Need load data for 6.m MM Rem mag and Barnes Triple Shock
The 6.5 Rem Mag was ommitted from the Barnes #4 Manual, which has loads for the Triple Shock bullet. Does anyone have a recipe for the Triple Shock in 6.5 Rem mag they'd care to share?

Many thanks in advance for your help!

When I was working up a load for the 120 gr TSX, I started with 52 gr of IMR4350 and worked up to 55, which my gun likes and doesn't show any high-pressure signs. I used WLRM primers.

For the 130gr TSX, I started with 49 and worked up to 51 gr.

Hey Stosh, welcome to AR

I load for 2 of the 6.5 rem mags, both are custom rebarrels of 300 win mag. Both of the shoot the 130's well with 57 gr RL22 with Fed215 primers for a velocity of 3050 to 3100 fps. Mostly that was with the 130 gr Accubonds or the 130 gr Scirroccos.
