[QUOTE="shootallday, post: 1758934, member: 91448"] I have a mauser m18 in 6.5 prc and I am looking to see what others loads look like. This rifle was given to me from a friend because it seems to run slow, he could get published factory fps but had to go well over book max with the few powders used. This will be a hunting rifle all I don't need to not rod it but would be nice to make it worth it. I believe his load with retumbo was 2720 fps max book load, 147 eld-m and hornady brass. So after cleaning the bore good from the 200 rounds out through it, I am about to state working up loads so a baseline what others use will help. I don't have much reason to use anything over 140 grains, tho I may try some heavier bullets down the road. For powders I'll get some h1000 retumbo and RL25 and if I can find some RL26, are there any others I should get? [/QUOTE]
