Factory copper ammo for 6.5mm creedmoor

There's a couple of threads on here recently about this if you do a search.

Sako Blade 2 and S&B Blue Energy are both pretty decent, both 120 grain and similar POI in my rifle.

I have found exactly this. The Norma/rws also good but very expensive and too light for Scotland. I tried fox and they were less accurate in my rifle. Many others on here seem to have good luck with them though.

My experience is that the s&b 140gr fmj lead rounds have a very similar POI at 100m to the copper which is handy for the range as they are less than half the price.

What are folk using and they find is regularly available?
I’m using S&B exergy blue, 120 grain. I’ve only used about 45 rounds so far but really seem to do the job consistently.
Not silly money for lead free rounds either. I think they’re a little over £40 a box from Dauntsey gunshop.

Agree completely. So far, the deer seem to like S&B Blue Exergy.
 
after reading this thread I thought I’d try some factory copper in 6.5x55 for my annual trip to Dawyck est stobo.
so of to livens my local gun shop for some seller&bellot blue energy 120 grn @£44 a box 6.5x55 I must say I was pleasantly surprised how well they shot out of my rifle Bergara B14 sporter doing 2820fps through the chronograph and just under 1moa at 100yds was happy with the result on paper will they work on deer I would say yes hopefully lol.
