My Tikka Whitetail Sporter loves H450 and 120 gr. bullets. Doesn't seem to matter which bullet, but no other powder will do the trick, so far, and I've tried a few. Those 120 grainers cut the same hole, when I'm doing my part.

I own several rifles in 6.5x55, and every one of them favors Re-22 for both velocity and accuracy with 120 to 140 grain projectiles. My 26" custom Encore barrel, loaded with 47 grains Re-22 beneath a 140 grain Sierra BTSP GameKing, will easily keep 3 shots inside 1.5 inches at 300 yards -- and it will do better than the 1.5" when I do my part.

My Encore handgun likes 35.5 gr of H4895 with Nosler's 120gr ballistic tip or remington's 120gr psp. .5moa with the ballistic tip and just about1 moa with the remington.
Good luck
Rick
