Help identifying this powder in a 6.5x47L load

[Trevor300wsm]

I know this is probably a shot in the dark, but I need some help here. I bought a rifle package from a guy and he was supposed to supply the load information for this rifle, however long story short the guy has fell off the face of the earth and hasn't sent me all my stuff, nor did he send me the load info. I do have 30 loaded rounds for this rifle and I broke one down and measured the powder charge inside the round and it came out to 37.5 grains. The bullet is a Berger 130gr and Lapua brass but I have no idea what powder or primer it is. Can anybody tell me the common powders use in the 6.5x47L and maybe which ones it might be at 37.5 grains?? I'd greatly appreciate it and itd save me alot of headache. Also, if I'm missing something here and overlooking a simple solution please let me know.
Thanks,

Dont risk trying to identify it. Just work up one on your own.

What is the risk? It seems to be a mild if not low side charge on most powders. This particular load is sub-MOA out to 600yds so I'd say it would be very beneficial to atleast try to identify it.

Plain and SIMPLE NEVER ASSUME what a powder is! Bad things can happen when you ASSUME!

I used varget in my gun with that load. Mild in my gun but accurate.

In quickload using generic OAL 2.8", 24" barrel, 130 berger vld, ect. 37.5grn of varget is near max pressure. I would say it is max pressure. I would work up to it.
