I am using 45g or RL 17 hornady brass, fed. primers and the OAL is 2.80, both my daughter and my 6.5CM like this combo with the LRX.

Thanks guys. What speeds are you seeing? Like to hit 2800 from a relatively slow 24” tikka barrel

I use 4.3.3 grains on Re 17 with my .260, for just under 3000. You can run the same in the Creed, I am sure, with that bullet. 24-inch barrel.
You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.

Thanks guys. What speeds are you seeing? Like to hit 2800 from a relatively slow 24” tikka barrel Tikkas typically need a little more gas to hit equal velocities.... due throat geometry. 2800 should be pretty simple. We get 2825 out of a 20” Tikka .260 via H4350.
You better pray to the God of Skinny Punks that this wind doesn't pick up......
