I am putting together a 6.5x47. I was planning on starting out with H4350 but read that varget may be the way to go. I understand that I will have to do my own testing but curious as what others have found. Thanks
 
I have had great results with Varget and no issues with compressed loads. H4350 works well too but uses more powder so some loads will have some crunch depending on seating depth. 37.5 of Varget is a very common accuracy load with this cartridge. I use this and I have an SD of 4 over 10 shots with fantastic accuracy.
