6-letter words with R as the 2nd letter and M as the 4th letter

The fixed letters leave four open spots, but the choices cluster in recognizable shapes. C, G, and P lead the first-letter group, while plural endings dominate the other end. Start with the examples and ending counts rather than scanning at random.

S finishes 38 of the 99 matches, making plural-looking forms a strong place to search. CRIMES, FRAMES, DRAMAS, TRUMPS, and CRUMBS all fit the pattern and end in S.
