Anyone tried any other powders besides H1000? (Currently running ~60 gr H1000 with the 140’s. I am wondering if RL26 would make for a good option as well. I have no idea where to start with another powder as there is very little info out there on the 6.5 SAUM. Just shooting 130,140’s primarily. Open to any other suggestions as well.

Sendero Man is using 7977 quite a bit.

Hornady 143 ELD-X
59 grns RL26
fed 210M primer
Rem 300 Saum brass.
2.180 BTO
3080 fps
This is showing some promise in my GAP
Proceed with caution.

Haven't had a chance to give R26 a run in mine, still sticking to H1000.

I did run quite a bit of 7828ssc in a couple that seemed to like it better than the 1000. Can't recall the charges off the top of my head but was right in like with the H1000.

Looks like Sendero Man got good results with the 135 JLK over 59.6 RL26.
