[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1822945, member: 33159"] I couldn’t get ahold of any Varget (which is what Steve recommended first), so I went with RL16. It’s very temp stable. Steve said it was a great alternative to Varget. Proof is in the pudding. I will tell any of you running the heavier bullets in the Creed to try RL26 (if you can find it). I’ve got it almost matching the velocities of my 6.5-284 Norma. I like to practice shooting with other bullets (I only hunt with Hammers) and I have a large supply of bullets I’ve boarded over the years. Anyway, with the 143 gr ELDX I’m getting 2952 fps. I got it up over 3000 fps but the accuracy node was where I stopped. I never hit pressure, either. [/QUOTE]
