Whatever works for 6.5 SAUM or 6.5-284 would probably be good powders to try.

I was testing loads until wind blew my target away so I shot this old freezer door in our junk pile out in the pasture , h1000 57.8 143 ELD top left bottom right was h1000 58.4 140 Berger VLD Rem mag primers in both out of a 1-8 twist proof carbon fiber 28 inch hopefully I will get back out when the wind calms down a little bit I rarely get that lucky

Leonard...you said 143gr ELDx, but your pic says 147 (which would be the ELDMatch?) Which is it???

What velocities are you getting?? 28in barrel I'd think they were pretty good.

Awesome group whichever bullet. I'm just burning some factory rounds and then I'll start reloading. Thanks for sharing!!

I’m sorry it is the 147 on left and yes ELD match and Berger 140 on right sorry I’m going to test some more loads tomorrow hopefully

I didn’t Chrono them due to the wind but I will tomorrow hopefully let me know how you do on your loads please
