Whats your favorite 6.5-06 load

Just built a 6.5-06 with a 1:9 twist, 26" full bull barrel. Going to start working up some loads, but wanted some input on what you guys have found to be your best loads, bullets and powder.

Thanks
Bill

RL22 is becoming my all around powder because I use it so many places. It's also a great powder in the 6.5-06.....try loading up to 52 grains with a Hornady 140 grain A-Max for those long shots.

Good old H4831 was quite a pleaser for 120gr Ballistic Tips. Bullets seated .010" of the lands did great.
