I’ve had a handful of 6.5 CM’s and none have been hard to get to shoot either 140 Berger’s, 143/147 eld’s or 139 scenars depending on what I had to burn. Only used R26 and h4350 so can’t comment on other powders.

I tend to like less common rounds so my Current CM barrel is stamped 6.5x47 Lapua and currently shooting tiny groups with 139 scenars as a buddy had a pile of them. Seeing 2825 with h4350.
