6.5x55 loads

Just wondering if anyone has any load data for N140 with 129g SST's

cheers

That's a really fast-burning powder for the swede with a 129gr bullet. Are you after something special, like really low muzzle blast from a really short barrel or something to that effect?
 
Not really, just have a full tub to use. I have bullets to use in 100g 120g 123g & 129g just wondering if anyone shot with this combination.
 
Intuitively may be more suited to the lighter bullets. Pressure may peak quickly but saying that I know H4895 has been used in the swede and that is faster than N140
 
Been down this route. N140 is fast but if barrel short like a 20" May get results but not with lighter billets in my experience.
my chosen powders are
IMR 4350 for 120/123gr
RL17 or N150 for 129sst
but I'm sure there will be others
