Just curious what powders people are using with the Creedmoor for bullets under 120 grains. Specifically, I'm looking for any suggestions with the 95 gr Vmax. Thanks
 
Varget, IMR 4895, IMR 4064, H4350, W760, IMR 4350, IMR 3031 and a little RL-15.

Just an update I tried 6.5 staball and varget with success with starting loads, have to work on them yet.
Rl17 was not good.
 
TAC with 100s. I had lots of TAC and it was in the Hornady manual, so I tried it. 1/2" groups at 100 in a Ruger Predator.
This 6.5 is only for short range deer and coyote (max 300 yds) and I like light for caliber for that. 100 gr Nosler ballistic tips put 3 deer down last year DRT at max of 150 yards.
 
I tried Varget. It was ok, just under 1.04, but I have a feeling it can do better. Gonna tinker with different charges.
