[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 487843, member: 24624"] You may or may not get a tad better velocity out of N560 and possibly Retumbo based on what others are posting. But, I doubt you will get 3000fps out of a 26 inch barrel or better accuracy or consistency/temp stability than with h4831sc. I use it because it's one of the dominant powders in competitions for this cartridge and I get good results from my rifle. The 3 chamberings go back to the original wildcat. I lost my notes from talking with Shilen about ordering one of these, but you can call them. You most likely want the Norma chamber since that's now the official standard. You'll note that even new Lapua brass is made for the standardized cartridge and the box is labelled "6.5-284 Norma". Good luck! richard [/QUOTE]
