I'm playing around with some Sierra 55gr and Hornady 58gr bullets for gophers with my 6mm Rem. 41gr of H335 seems to work fairly well, but gives a monster muzzle flash. Anybody got a favorite load with these bullets?

Thanks,
Eric
 
Welcome to CGN tmh!

I was getting good groups with the 55gr Noslers but I believe it was a much slower powder like H414 I was using. 4000 fps and not even pushing it with 7/8" groups. I only hit one Coyote at a full run 320 yards (by fluke I suspect) and he piled up really hard! I can check the data tonight.

Varget & RL15 are the two go-to powders for the light bullets in my 243, I'd suspect they'd work just as well in the slightly larger 6mm. the new IMR 4007SSC should be a winner too
