i'm loading for two swedes and bought a pile of 130 accubonds cheap. started loading with rl-19, but i'm looking for other powder options.
i have rl-19 and 22 on hand i also have i4350 and rl-15. i use cci large rifle primers exclusively.
what other powders do you all recomand to get me 2700-2800 fps.
also at that speed and bullet do i have a 300 yard elk killer?
thanks

PS - I love the 130 Accubomb in my .260...
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

I'm using Accurate AA-3100 with 130 accubonds and CCI Lr primers and getting speeds of nearly 2900 fps. I have experience with both RL19 and H4831 but like AA-3100 best.

I haven`t tried the 130 Accu-bond in 6.5 but, I have drove a lot of 129 gr Hornadies with R22 from my Swede.

H4350 works very well in mine w/130 Accubonds. Also try R19 and H4831.
Ride well, shoot straight, and speak the truth.

My 24" LR Mauser 6.5x55 gives me 2950 FPS with 129 grain Hornadys using 47.5 grains of H4350 with a 3" COL and CCI200 primers. Your rifle will be different. Of course, this load is not for milsurp rifles.
Be not weary in well doing.
