6.5 creedmore loads

[Varmint Hunter]

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.

Thanks for all the info posted here, very helpful especially when I'm new to reloading

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.

Rooster, you Might look around For some Newly minted, 6.5 Creed,. LAPUA Brass, for $114. per Hundred.
Can't remember WHO, I bought mine from, tho !,.. Sorry !
Peterson Brass works Fine also,. Just use, a Half a grain,. LESS !

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.
