6.5 creedmoor powder choice

Recommended Posts

I have used H4350 and RL-17 with great success. I just recently got my order of ELD-X bullets and plan on loading them with the RL-17. I found my barrel likes the faster burning powder since it is only 20 inches. The longer barrels seem to really like the H4350 around 41.5-42.5, or 2750-2800 fps. David

That is about my load. 41.4 grains of H4350 at 2745 FPS.

 

To the OP, if you can't find any H4350, I'll give you a pound. I think I have about 6.5 lbs, so I can spare a little until I can find some more.

So now...what bullets are you all shooting? Just loaded up some 123 amax tonight that i had laying around, definitely cheaper than buying another box of 140 VLD.

This will be a hunting/ target shooting gun, so I want the 140s for the higher BC and 400-500 yard deer shots. But for a 400 yard shot with 120s you will probably still hit dead nuts.
