Over the years I have had good results using the BLC-2 powder in everything from 222 Remington through to the 308 Winchester. I haven’t found any data on using this powder in the 6.5 Creedmoor so I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with this combination? Or knows where to find data?

I sincerely believe the 257 Roberts is a classic cartridge that deserves a better fate than the dust bin of history. As such here is what I have done to restore this cartridge to everything that I believe Ned Roberts intended it to be. The cartridge on the right is the standard factory offering...
