Thanks again.
I've already done a search of about all available data, and found 8208 to be commonly listed as getting good results. Have some of it and Benchmark, and will give them both a try in the 24" barrel.
Have some other powders on a variety of 6.5 bullets from 85 grains on up to try, including Shooter's World TacRifle, which looks like it might be good with heavier bullets.
Yep, Speer makes Gold Dots by electro-plating. It's a pretty effective way to make bullets that hold together, but they can be a little "grabby!
