    It did do it while I was doing some incremental testing with 2209. But it didn't seem consistent. There is a small amount of soot on the neck of the factory rounds (Hornady Superformance). The...

    I got round to some accuracy testing and was surprised at the results. Both were 6 shot groups at 100m. I played around with the seating depth for both powders but settled on using the same for each....

    Tuidog liked post by Magnetite On thread : 2213sc in 6.5x55?
    I did some seating depth testing with 2213sc and 129gr projectiles. It looks like you will need to adjust it between 2209 and 2213sc. Initially it looks like 2213sc noticeably more accurate. I hope...

    I did a comparison of 2209 and 2213sc with 129gr bullets. It may be of interest to you: https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co.nz/f10/6-5x55-se-sanity-check-61340/index2.html#post1062511

    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...
