[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2881138, member: 313"] Got back to the club today and was anxious to test some loads in a recently rebarreled 6.5 Creed. I typically shoot 3 rounds of "anything" through a thoroughly cleaned barrel before I get started with my tailored handloads. I had some Sierra130 TMK bullets left over from an old project and grabbed some RE17 that is no longer needed for my 375Ruger because I sold it. Shooting 3 rounds from a squeeky clean barrel at my 400yd target, here's what I found. I'm not sure about the velocity. 2 out of 3 bullets did not register on the LabRadar. The 3,003 fps seems high but that's what was listed for the 3rd round. [ATTACH alt="8.5 Creed - 130 TMK.jpg"]485799[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
