Default 6mm Berger ???

I'm about out of 65 V-Max 6mm bullets for my 6X45mm. As this bullet is on the "temporarily" discontinued list because of the hoarder craze this last year & there is no telling when it will be available, I'm looking to develop another bullet/load combination. Seems Berger has a wide selection & was wondering if anybody had any experience or advice on which one would be more fur friendly. Mainly shooting coyote, fox, & bobcat. I've been running the 65 V-Max @ 3100 with good results on the yotes.

Default Bullets Suggestion

How about the Barnes 68 gr flat base Match Burner. Traditional lead core copper jacketed bullet. I haven't shot a coyote with the Match Burners yet, but they are accurate as hell. And cost wise cheaper than Bergers. http://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/...roductId/27539

68s will do a good job for you, I use Barts Ultra but Bergers will be fine. I drive the 68s at about 3385 in a 6PPC, ballistics out to as far as I shoot are pretty close to 65s. Should be able to use the same load data.
