I've had a great deal of time to test my RL26 147 eld-m load and am on 7 reloads on some cases now with zero issues so going to post this load

Tikka T3 6.5X55 swede
Lapua Brass
147eld-m
49.5 grains RL26
Remington 9 1/2 primer

2730 fps at 10 degrees
2750 fps at 85 degrees

Shoots tiny groups in cold, hot, rainy, snowy or sunny weather


This one is my hunting load with cases on 4 reloads with zero issues

Tikka T3 6.5X55 swede
Lapua Brass
130 accubond
47.5 gr. RL17
Rem 9 1/2 primer

2930 fps at 10 degrees
2950 fps at 55 degrees
3015 fps at 85 degrees

I don't hunt with the RL 17 130 accubond load in warm weather so it's not a problem for me but thought I would post the noticeable increase as the temps warmed up purely for the benefit of others

Good bullets properly placed always work, but not everyone knows what good bullets are, or can reliably place them in the field
