Jordan, on page 19 in reference to the 147 ELD in your 6.5 CM you stated "MV stated to be 2567 fps". Now in the above post you are saying its 2700 fps. The discussion was using similar barrel lengths of 24" in the .270 and 6.5 CM so a comparison could be made. Which is the correct muzzle velocity you are getting, is it 2567 fps or 2700 fps? And with the 2700 fps what powder are you using in that 24" barrel that is temperature stable to get that and what amount of powder?
I was pretty clear in my initial comparison that the .270 Win 145 gr ELD-X and 6.5 CM 147 gr ELD-M were both factory loads, for a fair comparison, and the velocity on the 147 gr load is listed as 2567 fps.
In my rifles I shoot handloads using mainly H4350 and IMR4451, though I’ve got a good load with R26, as well.
