    6.5 ELDM 147g any good for hunting?

    Reloading for a 6.5 creedmoor ( hunting mostly) I have 140 partitions and 139 grain SST. Have been Fireforming new Lapua brass with 95g V-Max and a mid charge of 43g of Staball 6.5 and have got pressure signs and have come to the conclusion that my rifle just doesn't like the V max. I have read the the Forementioned ELDM is used successfuly at long range but would it be any good on lightish goats/deer in the close ranges ie 50-100m. They would also be used to fireform new brass, just thought if it's shooting in a straight line why not??
