Came into 8 pds of NS Vectan 3000 that I couldn’t not buy since it was $27 a pound. All research I ve done says it’s in 8208, H4895 burn rate. Vectan says it’s a good 6 PPC powder thus thinking my 60-65 gr 6 ARC loads might be a good fit.

Dr Mike or one of you guru s; would/could you run a QL if it’s in your database on the following:

6ARC
60 gr Sierra HP and 65 Hor VMax
2.080” oal
22” barrel
And Vectan Tubal 3000

Would appreciate any help / data you could come up with. If anyone has used this powder in the ARC or other cartridges would welcome those comments as well!

Thx in advance Gentlemen.
 
Tubal 3000 is in the GRT database, but the 6mm ARC isn't.
In the 6PPC using your barrel length and dimensions 27.9 gr. develops 3173 fps at 55kpsi with a loading density of 106%.
