Any love for the 6mmXC?

Anyone using this round? Share experience? Ordered a prefit based on some research and am anxious to hear from locals who have used it.

Great round in my Tubb gun. Shoots under 1 MOA at 1000.

Burned a few barrels out with a 6xc. What would you like to know?

How'd you like it and what did you use for? What was barrel life? Favorite load?

Sorry for the late response. 41.6 grains of h4350. 115 dtac. 3180 fps. I used it for prs matches. It was a screamer. This was also years ago when I thought I had to have something very fast unlike today. I was using norma brass which will hold a ton more pressure than any other 6xc brass out there. When I switched over to Peterson brass I could barely hit 3000 fps without pressure signs. At 3180 fps, I pulled the barrel at 1200 rounds but it was still shooting good.

Might need to find some Norma brass, I have Peterson
