    6.5 creedmoor favorite loads

    Just built a 6.5 creedmoor in an AR-10 platform. Shooting factory hornady HPBT this weekend and its managing quarter size groups at 150 yards. Now that I'm left with a pile of empty brass time to roll my own. Anybody have any favorite loads or bullets in this caliber? Large primer or small? I need to punch steel and shoot white tails.

    You can build a package any way you like on the website. The link is on top of the forum page.
    People seem to like different pocket sizes for different reasons. We have both on the website, but the Hornady still seem to be the biggest seller for the cost.
