Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Nosler 6.5 RDF's in a Creedmoor

I just received 500 RDF's in 6.5 to try in my Creedmoor. Anyone tried this bullet selection yet? I've loaded up my first batch with RL-17. That was the best powder to date with 120's, but this is my first foray into loading the 140's. RL-17 looks to be a good bet though.

I've got other powders on hand if someone's found something that works better.

Hoping to get decent accuracy at around 2750. That would achieve pretty good down range ballistics.

Interesting bullet. If RL17 doesn't work out, consider RL16. I found decent accuracy at higher velocities than RL17 with a 140 ELD.

Superb information. If the Rl-17 doesn't work out I'll be looking for some 16 to try. Curious what real world speeds you've achieved with the 140 ELD?

I love the Creed
