    .244/6mm Remington

    If you scroll down a bit there is a table of projectiles and BC and MV although it doesnt have the amount of powder used.

    Try the hodgedon powders site, they normally have loads for barnes pills.

    Projectiles; anything that works in a 243 of like twist will work in the 6mmRem.

    In close I would go 85 grn TTSX or TSX based on my experience with them. The 100 grn Hornady Interlock is a good reliable one too.
