[QUOTE="Russell Sonner, post: 2340020, member: 112476"] My 6.5x284 is a Norma with a 24" barrel and I run 53.6gr of RL26 with a 143 ELD-X and get 2910 fps. I could run it faster but I get best accuracy at that load. I also shoot 55.4gr with a 120gr Hornady GMX at 3140 fps both are sub .35"@100yds. The Hornady 123 SST runs the same as well. I think you have several powders that can get you there in your list. I tried RL22 and was over 2900 fps before pressure signs starting showing around 54.8gr. The accuracy was not as good for me as RL26. Many swear by the H4821sc powder, I just have never tried it but I believe you can get there with it easy too. [/QUOTE]
