    any specialty loadings with varmint bullets

    I don't reload currently. I am looking for a loading for the 6.5 for use on coyote's and other predators, maybe some ground hog hunting as well. Are there any loaded ammo options. I know there are some places that load 6.5 grendel but seems like everyone is either loading match bullets,something heavier or the 100 grain ttsx. Looking for a loading with a under 100 grain bullet. Thanks

    Lightest loads I have found or the 100 grain BT and the 100 grain TTSX.

    I wish someone loaded the 95 grain vmax I would use tha t on yotes and bobcat instead of the 123 grain pills.

      yeah that's why I was asking. was hoping some small manufacturer like hendershot's was loading the 95 vmax or 90 speer tnt.

        They have a custom gun and ammo place not far from my woman's house in texas, next time I'm passing through I'm going to stop and talked up bout some loads maybe they will have something are be willing to load some for a decent price.

        Really want some 95 grain pills.

          100gr Nosler Ballistic Tip is a choice to consider.

          AA used to make and sell the 90gr TNT, but discontinued it.

            was hoping for something with a little more speed and the lighter grains would "hopefully reduce exit wounds". I may be incorrect in that last assumption, but my thinking was maybe the 90 grain tnt or 95 vmax wouldn't always exit. Pretty sure the 100 BT will and will exit with a huge hole! My shots will almost always be within 100 yards.
