I guess I'm reaching out for successful loads and quality components in 6.5 Creed. My initial starting point Lyman loading book.
Anything y'all got will be helpful….. thx
I've been hand and reloading for just couple years (7 cartridges) …. Measure everything and one process at a time, but I don't claim to be a master or anything close.
I shot the rifle yesterday with him…. Helping figure out the optic..
Burris Eliminator (5 I think). That's a lot of information in the glass. Not really clean to look through but really nice. It has a range finder remote control for set button. Haaa
Rifle
Benelli LUPO 24" 1:8
I believe we were shooting a match/hunting Barnes ammo….. (I'm going to confirm) looked nice to me and had easy 1 MOA if not touching groups at 100 yrds and still fire and forget clays at 200 yrds. Personally I don't think I can load more precise than that but I don't know.
He's saving all nickel cases
Given me $100 for dies
Asking me to research powder and projectiles.
I'll have to measure chamber cut exactly for seating depth. Gonna do GunBlue490 method…. 10 thou jump?
I do not load or shoot 6.5 anything.
He's confident he can save $$ if not do better with hand loads even though he's willing to pay me labor. I told him I'm not charging labor…. it's a nice offer but maybe I'll just keep some primers on the back end.
