    I have got a cooper 6x45, with 20” tube, i am running 85 gr serria soft points or partions, to 2880 fps with CFE.223, and 75 gr serria HP to over 3000 again with CFE.223, benchmark was the best powder for light bullets, BLC2 and CFE game me best results with 80 gr up, i think the 90 gr ELDX might be a great bullet to try.
    I load to 60 mm, as i have a bit more room, in the cooper than say a sako or CZ action,
    Great we rifle,
    Pitty the old hunting and fishing forum is gone, was a brilliant thread on there for the 6x45.
