4451 works great with 130 grain TMK's in my 6.5 Creedmoor

I've been working up loads for my 6.5 Creedmoor AR with a 22 inch Criterion barrel and I think I can stop looking.

Just came back from the range and found that 40.5 grains of IMR Enduron 4451 in Hornady cases with CCI BR-4 primers and the 130 grain Sierra TMK gave me a five round group of .757 of an inch at 200 yards.

I've really become a fan of 4451-it's super temperature stable and I'm amazed at how much cleaner my AR is after a trip to the range AND then how easy it is to clean it. It also meters really well-I'm going to try this load straight through my Dillon 550, which is what I used to load these rounds but used my Chargemaster Combo this time for powder.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy-next trip will be with the Chrono.

I just picked up my 18th pound of 4451 the other day. I have been very happy with it with 130 and 140 grain bullets.

I tested 130TMK last year in 6.5cm, 260rem and 6.5x47L. Very accurate in all those guns but BC is very low compared to other similar bullets...
