[QUOTE="Norske, post: 136224, member: 409"] As a reloader, you should have learned that the bullet, powder charge, overall length, even the primer isn't up to you, it's up to the barrel. Reloading and testing is a search (call it a hunt) for the combination the barrel, and its bedding, likes. I have a 6.5X55 which uses powder charges very similar to the Creedmore. Mine likes Hornady bullets best. The magic potion is around 47gr H4831SC with a 140 SST, and around 47gr Alliant Reloader 19 with a 129 Spire Point. You don't have my rifle. Good luck with your search for almost perfection. I hit very good accuracy with the second and third handloads I tried. Most boring rifle I've ever owned. [/QUOTE]
