[QUOTE="elmerdeer, post: 1978561, member: 7381"] Hi Eshore, All the info I have found was on the gap 6.5 saum facebook page. Theres lots of good info if you follow that page and use the search function. I like Imr 8133 so far its a very accurate powder in 2 of my guns. My reamer specs is 6.5 Rsaum .298nk .100" freebore. and in those 2 guns 1 is a krieger 24" 1-8 and the other is 24" 1-8 5r benchmark both #2 contours. With Retumbo 58grs i am at 2975 fps with 150 sierra hpbt and that is maxed out in the krieger barrel, and Imr 8133 61grs 2971fps with 153.5gr Berger hybrid and again maxed out. Now I am trying Imr 8133 in the benchmark barrel and so far with the 140gr Berger hybrids i am doing 1" 5 round 200 yards groups, but i haven't had time to load more rounds to test but it looks real good. But from what I've been reading about N570 people have had even better results in speed and accuracy with a good range of bullet weights from 140-156gr. And soon as I find some N570 I will buy 8lbs to try out. Keep us posted as to how your accuracy results come out. Elmer [/QUOTE]
