I am looking to see if anyone has a favorite load for a 6mm Creed. The barrel I have is a 1:7.5t, I see 105 Berger, 109 Berger are available, but not limited to these, just looking for a good accurate load. I have H4350, RL16, RL26 Varget for powder and LRP, CCI 200. Anyone that has a proven load would be appreciated.
 
I use 41.2 gr of H4350 with the 110 ATIPS.
On one fine day it was accurate enough to win the two shot quarter at a quarter mile contest. Very consistent load.

Looks like H4350 is the powder of choice, luckily, I purchased another pound of it when I saw it at my local store. I have four pounds of RL16, when you could never find H4350. It does seem like the 40-42 grains is the money shot with this cartridge. Thanks for the data. I also wonder if anyone has any luck with Hornady bullets as well, I tried the factory ammo, I could only get .75 MOA out of it and would have a flyer in the bunch when testing. That was with the ELDX and ELD-M, the latest was 108gr Match ammo.
 
I'm using 41 g and 41.5 g of H4350, two different creeds, both with H4350. Running 135 Berger Classic Hunters, but speeds are around 2770.
I tried a bunch of different powders before H4350 and they were all a lot more unpredictable.

This is a 6 Creed, I think you are thinking of a 6.5 Creed
 
My Ruger American Predator with H4350 and the 105 hunting vld shot 4 groups all under an inch. Best group being .23 with 41.5 grains of powder and 2960 velocity with a 22" barrel. Elevation is higher where I live. I shot up to 42 grains and I got 3003 with a .7" group but I went with the 41.5 grain load.
 
I'm running the 109's with 38 grains of h4350 @ 2.812" averaging 2810 fps. I ran up to 42 grains with no pressure signs but my groups opened up quite a bit. It's a little slower than I was wanting, but it's a new benchmark so I'll get a hundred rounds down the tube and tinker some more.

I found a really good load with 115 bergers, 40 gr of 4350, small primer. 7.5 twist proof prefit steel barrel. Comes in at 3050 fps. 100 yd 5 shot groups are 5/8" to bugholes.
I just recieved 115 dtac's with the nose ring to try also
