    6.5mm-06 Loads Advice

    Greetings All,
    I am just working up a load for a friends 6.5mm-06 for which the data is variable and confusing. The rifle is a rebarrelled (560mm barrel) Remington 721 and the load will be for the 129 grain Nosler Accubond Long Range. Preliminary loads with AR2217 have given velocities well below any of the book data, as did previous loads with AR2213SC and 140 grain projectiles. I am working from a number of data sets, non of which show any similarity with the others. Powder will be AR2213SC as AR2217 just seems too slow to produce the goods in this rifle. The barrel has had around 500 rounds through it and still shoots very well.
    So the question is. Is there anybody in the 6.5mm-06 brains trust who has chronographed loads for 129 projectiles, especially the LRAB, for AR2213SC? Any data will be gratefully received.
    Regards and thanks Grandpamac.
