I finally found a place to do some testing. I've only tested the 2209 so far. I stopped at 45.5gr which was doing 2842fps from a 580mm barrel with suppressor. This matches up with the ADI max load...

You don't need a flash bullet for the 6.5x55 because they have a high SD and penetrate like hell and even in ordinary bullets the BC is pretty good. 140 ELDM sound good. I haven't used them in mine...
