6mm Rem mold question

[GWarden]

I have a Rem 700 in 6mm Rem with a 9" twist rate. Will this stabilize a NOE 106gr cast bullet, or am I on the edge for twist rate? Do not have the mold, looking at getting one. Thanks for your assistance.

Looking at the NOE drawing for that bullet it is short enough to work in a 9 or 10 inch twist. It’s pretty similar to the RCBS 100 grain. The RCBS 100 grain is stabilized in my 14” twist 6mm PPC. Not extremely accurate but produces round bullet holes in the paper. The 100 gr RCBS has been accurate in a number of .243 Winchesters and one .240 Weatherby. I’m not sure why I’ve never shot cast in 6mm Remington. The NOE 106 seems to be in stock, I’d jump on it. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed
