    Belmont powder and the 6.5 Creedmoor

    Hey everyone, hope everybody is having a great week.
    Been wondering about the Belmont Action Rifle powder for the Creedmoor, has anyone try it with the 140 ELD match? Any input is very much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Pretty sure this is just re-branded Win760 Ball Powder, or something like that. I'll try and find the real information shortly.

    Thank you heaps @Uplandstalker, I thought about it but as the "748" version sayis it is a bit slower burning I got interested if this one would be "slower" too.
    Very much appreciated the help.

    Cheers

    Incorrect. Belmont action rifle is a st Mark's powder for the 762 and 556. It is 7 percent faster burning than ww748 and is known as 747 colloquially. You could try it with 748 data minus 7 percent charge weights.

    Good luck

    Found it as curiosity, does anyone know how to "translate" it?
