i am soon to recieve a 6.5x47 lapua barrel for my savage 10 and am planing on reloading for it. I have been searching and it seems that everyone is using either varget, h4350, n550, and re15. My go to powder for this size case is imr 4064 which is right in between these powders but it seems no one has used it for the 6.5 lapua. does anyone know what the starting loads are for these powders and if imr 4064 would work?

P.S. im going to try bullet weights of 123, 130, and 140 grains

Also look at Varget and IMR 8208 XBR. I haven't used 4064 in my 6.5L. If your going to use Berger bullets, send Walt Berger an e-mail for load date for his bullets. He will send you data he's checked on "QuickLoad".
