6mm BR Norma Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 6mm BR Norma 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.

6mm BR Norma reference

Maximum average pressure (MAP)60,200 psi
Nominal case capacity38.0 gr H₂O
Groove / bullet diameter0.243 in (6.17 mm)

Example simulation illustrative

Bullet
Barnes .243 105 gr BT MATCH
Powder
Accurate A-2495
Charge
26.1 gr
Barrel
26 in

Muzzle velocity

2,474 fps

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

33,158 – 40,725 – 49,134 psi

nominal is 68% of the 60,200 psi maximum average pressure

Illustrative example — every figure here is an estimate and can be wrong. Always consult a current published loading manual, and never trust these numbers on their own.
