Looking for 6.5 PRC projectile question..

[greg vess]

I have a couple 100 pc. boxes of 130 VLD and just got some Hornady 140 gr. SST pills I just ordered. What powder is generally used for the lighter projectiles and for the 140 and heavier jobs. I am just trying to find a place to start without doing the old stab in the dark deal. Powders I have on hand are H4831, H1000 and VN 565. What say you 6.5 PRC loaders. I just today got my last few pieces to actually start loading. .

I have had good success with H4350 on Berger 135 and 140 hunting bullets. I tried one other powder (I would have to look it up) but H4350 worked best in my rifle

Find the slowest burning powder you have and go with that! Usually it's the best
