I've considered doing the same to see how close I can get a 6.5 CM to a 6.5 Grendel. Curiosity was my main motivator....and time was my main source of demotivation.

Try 4198 or RL 7.... 30 grains...

or 3031 which has been available. try between 30 to 35 grains.. you'll find something that you like to duplicate a 6.5 Grendal...I load for both, along with the 260 Rem and the 6.5 x 55 and 6.5 x 57...
