[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 3088347, member: 115658"] I use Staball HD in my 6.5-06 with 140 grain bullets and it makes me happy. [ATTACH alt="IMG_2307.JPG"]565136[/ATTACH] [ATTACH alt="Screenshot (897).png"]565138[/ATTACH][ATTACH alt="Screenshot (899).png"]565139[/ATTACH] Possibly, the nice Federal 215M primer could provide a lower SD. I have 700 of them. Case fill appears to be about 95% with 57.5 grains & the 140 Barnes Match Burner. Chopping off the left & right tails of the 95% probability bell shaped curve indicates a mass loading should provide a difference of 38 fps. I have not loaded 123 H ELDM' yet and 60 or so grains grains might hit 3,000 but other powders do this easily, like the nice SW4350 available at my LGS. Sg values are more than "comfortable". This is the first group fired after installing a Timney trigger in my Ruger MKII - set at about 2 pounds. Sightron 4-20X50 STAC mounted with cheap SWFA 30mm low rings & Wiegand 20 MOA PIC base. McGowen 26 inch #5, 8 twist barrel. Ammo - Norma .270W brass, necks turned to .286 enabling slip fit of bullets into fired cases. Brass trimmed to length using Lyman case trimmer with .25-06 pilot & my Dewalt cordless. I would not consider SB HD for the 6.5 CM (need more?) case capacity is inadequate for the slow burning SB HD intended for rounds like the 6.5 PRC, [/QUOTE]
