    Aha, just about to get my old 6 BR and my 6.5x47L up and running again.

    6mm BR hasn't been fired since 2012, the 6.5x47L since 2017.

    In 2017 I tried some loads using 2208, 130 gr Bergers. The results weren't great and I lost interest, instead of persevering.
    Normal range load was 130 gr Bergers (pointed) and Reloder powder.
    I still have a reasonable amount of Reloder left but wanted to use 2208 due to it being less temp sensitive.

    I used to get cracker groups with the 130 gr Bergers and also 123 gr Scenars. Scenars a bit light though and didn't give me much ballistical advantage over using my 6 BR.

    @Wingman what sort of velocities are you getting?
