Hi all, wanted to pick your brain as well as add to the forum.

Preparing to reload for my new Ruger American Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor. Barrel length is 22 inches with a 1:8 twist.

I know each rifle has its favorite loads, but looking for guidance in bullet selection. Would i be able to push the 147gr eld-m fast enough out of the 22 inch barrel to see any advantage over the 140 grain?

Currently shooting Sellier & Bellot 140 fmj boat tail with half min accuracy at 100 yards (limitations of the closest range to myself) while waiting to amass some brass, my dies are on the way.

Thanks all for your help.
