6.5 creedmore loads

I've got a new Bartlein 24' bbl w/8"tw on a Browning receiver. I'm running a (boring) 41.5gr H4350 in Lapua SRP cases with CCI 450 primers and a Berger 140 Elite Hunter. The rifle easily shoots into 1.5" @ 400 yds. Two days ago, it shot a .48" group, but that was sheer luck.
Interestingly enough, the rifle shot slightly better with IMR4350, which I was using when H4350 wasn't available.
 
140 match burners CCI200, and 40gr h4350 makes a crazy accurate and easy shooting load. I highly recommend.

147eldm and 42.5gr 6.5 staball also makes a crazy accurate load.

I think the OAL was set on these to just fit in the Tikka M mag.

I found 116.99 Lapua primers and just got them in. I wanted to try the small primer pocket just to see if it works.
Did real well on 308 cases.
 
Cotton picking knee problems has me bound up right now and have not gotten out much to try the new SRP Lapua brass in 6.5 Creedmoor yet.
I have shot the SRP Lapua 308 brass 2 or 3 years ago and they shoot great so I expect the 6.5 Creedmoor brass to do the same.
Anyone used the Lapua SRP brass in 6.5 Creedmoor yet? Results?

.99....is that like a miniscule dent....or a small chip? At .99 I'd still load it...at
.98....no way...just toss it. You will still have 116 good ones!😂

Your gonna love it. Consistent weight, primer pockets stay tight. Mine gets run pretty hard, has 12 firings and still got life in it. It will even make your knee feel better. ;)
