My 6.5x55 is happy with 147eldm @ 2810 on top of 2209.

Can't go past .7 BC.

Yeah Litz reckons .617, .315 which is probably a little closer to the mark for the average BC

That's a lot lower than advertised!

Is that on the Berger website?

I need to try some Berger’s next KG, currently at 43.8 of R17 but still not happy with accuracy of the 143.

On the deer yep
On targets sort of. Sitting with 143 and accuracy is not as good as it gets and have tried R19, 17 and Superformance. 129 Sierra are excellent and performing well.
Have some new arrivals last week that’s to @superdiver and will try them but if they’re no better than 143 I’ll go Berger 130 or 140 as they’re always excellent accuracy wise in 6.5 calibers I’ve found.
Looking at a new stock soon also probably from @Camwsm.
