Thanks. I ended up with a bunch of the Nosler 140 CCs and tried five powders in hand. So far so good with IMR4451 but need to confirm. RL17 and H4350 (which I have very little off) did just well but the 4451 edged out the 17, or so it seemed. Not fast, about 2650. Hoping they blem a bunch of 129 ABLR as it really seems ideal for the cartridge as was sugested earlier. I'll look that way for hunting loads which I don't need for many long months. I did get some 150 27's and 210 30's to try and like the 'looks' of them FWIW..

I've used a decent amount of Hunter in the Creedmoor. It works well with 140s, though I prefer Re-17 over it for that. I've had very good results with a mild charge of Hunter under the 120 & 123 Lapuas, but 39.5 grains of Accurate 4064 (another mild to mid load) has been positively astonishingly good with them.

Darkker has loaded quite a bit of Superformance in the Creedmoor. I have a pound or two of it, but haven't tried to work up my own load for the Creedmoor with it.
