6.5 creedmoor 140 bergers VLD

[Canhunter35]

There is another recent thread on here asking for what guys are getting from a 24" creedmoor . This load is right in there but I posted because I felt it was maybe a little hot and wanted some opinions of more experience guys than me. Surely .7 gr more than what's published in the hornady manual isn't that far out of line. I thought maybe the magneto speed was off but it's showing velocity of factory ammo for my 28 Nosler to be a little slower than listed on the box. 6.5-284 is running right were it should be too.

After reloading for a cpl 6.5, the powder weight doesn't seem out of line, but I would be real curious if you could verify that velocity on paper. You might have a barrel that's faster than lightning.

Scrap a couple and it would tighten it up nice

I think your barrel is just on the verge of getting properly fouled.
My Creedmoor took 20 shots to settle the ES.
