Hi. Looking at building a 6 creed. 1:8 twist with 18 inch barrel to shoot 85 - 95 grn copper.
I have few tubs H4350 but also wondering
If people have other options to get best velocity from it.?
I just read that RS60 would give great velocity but I’m aware it could be temp sensitive.
Anyone have experience with it or other powder in 6 creed?
 
I use RS70 in a 20’’ 6CR with good results using 108ELDs. Mild at 2760 but kills everything out to 350m which is good enough for me.

Thanks Gaza.
What made you pick RS70?
Did you try others?
Have you noticed anything issues with temp?
 
I use it in my 6CR and used it in my 6.5PRC and a mates 6.5x55 so I had a decent stock of it and it seems to be available enough. Not noticed any temperature issues and have shot hundreds of deer with it year round. Not tried anything else and was happy with the speed. If I want faster I’ll just use my longer range stuff.

Makes sense.
Thanks for info.
