    6.5 Creed - 147 ELDM Load Advice?

    Where would you guys advise I go from here to tighten these groups up? First group is 39gn (2650fps). Second group is 39.5 (2680fps). I was thinking about testing .3 grain increments around these charge weights. Any suggestions?

    Intial load work up, .223 - 69gn HPBT - Pressure Signs?

    Ok, I should have done that. I never mix brass on my bolt rifles so I don't know why I thought it would be ok here. How much should I bump the shoulder back from the fired formed dimension when full length resizing? .003"?
