Nothing on Nosler's site for the 6.5-284.
Maybe use 140 AB data, start low and work up?
Here's a QL on the 140AB in a 26" barrel.
I set the pressure 1000 down from max.

Code:
Cartridge : 6.5-284 Norma
Bullet : .264, 140, Nosler AccuBond 39457
Useable Case Capaci: 61.875 grain H2O = 4.017 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.228 inch = 81.99 mm
Barrel Length : 26.0 inch = 660.4 mm
Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 58400 psi, or 402 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !
188 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 85%. These powders have been skipped.

I note that this is your first post; I hope it won't be your last. Welcome aboard. Data for that bullet hasn't been posted on nosler.com yet. I assume you have checked all the usual sites. Similarly, data for that particular bullet is not included in the data set for QuickLoad. You might try adapting data for the 140 grain AccuBond, starting low and working up carefully, however.

I was able to run some loads through today and it seems faster is not better with these bullets.
51.5 grns H4831sc gave me a consistent 2760 fps. A little slow for this round but I will gladly give up speed for the .750" - 5 shot group it gave me @ 200yds. I found that .002 off the lands was a must. Any more jump and things went wild and tighter was similarly crazy. That being said the O.A.L. is a very long 3.265. 140grn Berger VLD hunting have giving me the same accuracy with about 60 fps. faster but I want the AccuBond's bonded performance. I will try some longer shooting tomorrow.
