6.5-06 A-Square Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 6.5-06 A-Square with the free, in-browser MyLoads internal-ballistics simulator. The figures below are illustrative estimates from a physics model — not a recommended recipe. Always cross-check a current published loading manual.

6.5-06 A-Square reference

Maximum average pressure (MAP)60,000 psi
Nominal case capacity65.7 gr H₂O
Groove / bullet diameter0.264 in (6.71 mm)

Example simulation illustrative

Bullet
Hornady 0.264 95 gr V-MAX
Powder
IMR 4350
Charge
49 gr
Barrel
24 in

Muzzle velocity

3,050 fps

Peak chamber pressure (interval, ±10% burn-rate)

35,738 – 45,187 – 56,003 psi

nominal is 75% of the 60,000 psi maximum average pressure

Illustrative example — every figure is an estimate; always confirm your load against a current published manual before loading.

Use MyLoads as a 6.5-06 A-Square velocity and pressure calculator: it estimates muzzle velocity, muzzle energy and the full chamber-pressure curve for your own powder, charge and barrel length, compared against the reference facts above.
