[QUOTE="264MHC, post: 1951777, member: 111161"] RL 26 and VV 565 are probably the top performers velocity wise but since this is a match gun, I would also recommend RL 23. It is exceptionally temp stable, I’ve seen almost no change from 25* to 95*, and burns a little cooler than 26 or 565. It should provide very good case fill at max pressure with any of the 140 to 150 class bullets. My experience with it is in a 6.5x55 improved with 62 grains case capicity. In my 25” barrel, I get 2890 with 49.8 grs behind a 150 SMK and maxed out at 50.6 for 2930. This would be a good starting load in the 68 gr capacity 6.5-284. It should be relatively easy to find but I haven’t looked lately. [/QUOTE]
