No, you would create bomb! Black outs are basically A pistol cartridge sized case. Fill up a CM case with it and your rifle is toast.

Derail...Blackhorn 209 is your friend...
OP, TrailBoss gives you case fill. That is what you are looking for. I wouldn't try anything that isn't listed unless you are going to stand behind a berm with a pull chord

NO. That sounds absolutely terrifying.
I run about 7.5gn of Lil'Gun in 300 BLK, a case with ~19gn of H20 capacity. The 6.5CM has almost 3x the case capacity.

I've wondered if this would fill any of the gaps left by TB... https://www.vihtavuori.com/powder/n32c-tin-star/
If you can't find trail boss just stay in the burn range in reloading manual for the CM.

Yupp says it...Just no data
"It is also used for subsonic and blank loads"

Tin Star may be harder to find than TB. Does anyone know where to get it?
That explains why you don't see it or the other powders anywhere.Apparently VV dropped Tin Star last year.

You can use pistol powders BUT it's hard to find load data on them.
With pistol powders you cant fill the case up-- you just use a little.
I actually use green dot powder for subsonic 308w loads-- works well but took quite a bit of time to find start points for load data

Found this article on reduced creedmoor loads using 4895. Significantly reduces speed, However it's still a long way from subsonic.
