6.5 creedmoor and 147 eldm

Good speed with the 147 out of the 6.5x47. Maybe I should try the 147 in mine. Currently shooting the 130 Berger hunting at 2975 fps.
 
I am getting 2820 fps with the 147 in a 6.5x47 lapua. It is 26 inch barrel. They are coated hbn and using h4350.
That a heck of alot of speed in a 26" A buddy is getting cratered primers in his AI(a common issue due to the big pin hole) @ 2645ish
 
The bullets are coated with hbn. It is a factory desert tech rifle. It is suppressed too. I am running 450 cci.

I'm going to have to try the 147 in my RBros 6.5x47. I did try them with R26 but couldn't get enough powder in the case to produce any velocity. They did shoot very well.

Ahhhh your suppressor has to be good for 80 or so fps. And some pretty awesome shooting as well!!
 
I'm running the 147s in my Creedmoor with H4831SC at 2820 FPS. It's the best bullet I've ever run in my Creed and it'll take a helluva good 156 grain bullet from Berger to get me to switch back from the Hornady.

I'm running a 25.5" Brux barrel with a 1-8" twist.
How much 4831sc are you running for that velocity. I've been interested in testing that combination
