[QUOTE="BJH, post: 1454598, member: 93876"] The 6.5x284's that i have worked on have shot really well with the 140 VLDs. One is using 52.0 grains of H4831 SC, Win LR primers and .030" off the lands. Another is using 58.0 grain of Retumbo(the weighed charge from a round out of that one brand), CCI BR-2 primers, and .030" off the lands (.220" 3 shot group at 100 yards). Both rifles are using Lapua brass. In my thoughts, you could start around 56-57 grains of Retumbo and work up slowly from there with the Hammer you have selected, or give the H4831 SC a try starting around 52 and up. There is also a guy on here that has some inside information about the Hammers and he is always offering really good information on his bullets. I would guess that he will read this and offer some expert advice. Good luck and keep us posted on how they do. [/QUOTE]
