Just bought a couple pounds of a new powder(to me) 6.5 StaBall that I wish to use in my 6.5 Creed and .270 Win.

Would like to hear other shooters results using this powder in the .270 and 6.5.

Thanx!

Staball 6.5 creedmoor. did not have the labradar at the time.

Sierra 120 HPBTM - 44.5gr
Nosler 140 HPBT - 43.5gr

Rich,
How was the accuracy compared to your standard load(s)?

I haven't found a bad powder for the creedmoor

H4350
IMR4350
H414
Staball all are good with the nod to I4350 for 140's

I have all of those powders---will try 2 this coming week. StaBall and one other for now.

Thanx!

It gives some top numbers for 338WM and 375 H&H on Hodgdon's site, I have been meaning to pick some up when I get the chance, but have not yet.

So I am also waiting on first-hand reports.

I have both of those and like to have feedback on them also!

I've only used in the 270 Win and it is outstanding.

Have 45gr. loaded up behind a 120 gr, Horn. match bullet in the 6.5 CM and

55 gr. loaded up behind a 130 gr. Federal Fusion in the .270.

Will give the results at end of week.

OK---My M70 PRE 64 standard Win. Unaltered .270W
Shot 3 3shot groups---1/2". 7/8" and a 1 1/4" was getting tired but am very happy with initial groups==will refine! 130 gr. Federal Fusian

TC Compass (CHEAP) 6.5 cm 3 3 SHOT GROUPS---15/16", 1/2", 3/8 INCH 120 gr. ELD Match

I have so much so called "old powders".

I most likely never try the "new" stuff

With Staball, I've had good luck with 44.1g behind the 142 grain SMK in the 6.5 Creedmoor.

Im down to maybe 20 or 30 lbs. of old milsurp H4831, the stuff that Jack praised..It gets me more velocity and less pressure than anything Ive tried, but Lordy do I hate that stuff, its grain cutting horror, should weigh every charge and add or subtract form your load,,,I quit using it and have gone to RL-19, 22, 15, 17 and some others that don't require weighing..makes my life happier...but with the shortages I have gone back to the old 4831 ...
