Try 52.0 grs. IMR4350 w/ 140 gr bullet this load shot very well in my 6.5-284, on a side not work up when I went to 52.5 the load started showing signs of pressure. Another good load is 54.0 grs. with a 120 gr Nosler Solid Base or Ballistic tip. Good luck...

With the Berger VLD's in 140, I have good success with 50.5 grs of H4831SC, Lapua brass, and Fed match primers. You should probably start around 49.0 and see what your rifle likes.
