The following is an recent email I received from Dave.

Mike, I meant to send you the 6MM load data so in case you want to post it you can. Gotta love those 6MM AI's. Norma 7 x 57 Brass
Barnes 85g TSX
CCI Magnum Primer
49 gr IMR 4831
Bullet seated .055" back. Necks turned to just clean them up. Brass ran thru a Redding body die to slightly "bump" the shoulders (right at .0015 and makes them easy to chamber) and neck sized using a .270 bushing in a Redding bushing die. Squeeze .002" Doesn't copper up too bad in the Hart barrel. Clean up with KG1 and KG12. The stuff works pretty good. Takes a couple of hours (while watching football) to get it "dead clean" as Melvin Forbes puts it. I'll send you some group pics when I get a chance to take them and get them loaded on my laptop. Most 100 yard groups 3 shots under .300". There is an old building out on my farm that I am going to tear down one of these days soon. It's block wall construction. At 200 yards a Barnes bullet passes clear thru a block when hit in a cell. That 6 is a real hammer!
The Best,
