6mm Creedmoor Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 6mm Creedmoor 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 Creedmoor reference

Maximum average pressure (MAP)62,000 psi
Nominal case capacity53.0 gr H₂O
Groove / bullet diameter0.243 in (6.17 mm)

Example simulation illustrative

Bullet
Hornady 0.243 58 gr V-MAX
Powder
Accurate A-2700
Charge
45.4 gr
Barrel
24 in

Muzzle velocity

3,409 fps

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

31,417 – 42,941 – 56,063 psi

nominal is 69% of the 62,000 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 6mm Creedmoor 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.
