Thread: 6.5 Creedmoor loaded with slower powders

I got some H414 and have gained 250fps but more importantly have found the next node.
I don't know if you would get the same results in your Creedmore but could be worth looking at.

Thank you heaps WJ, i have a little bit of W760 myself, maybe enough for 10 rounds, i will check it out asap.

Cheers for the heads up… The only concern i have with these powders is, how temperature sensitive they are.
