Hi guys.
I have a Howa 1500 6.5 creed with a recoil reaper supressor. I am looking for a decent hunting load for the 129gn ABLR. I have N550, N555 and H4350. Anyone have a CBTO measurement and powder load to share please.
asking for another guys CBTO , could get you in trouble . if the other guys rifle is throated a little longer than your rifle , you could be jamming the bullet , or maybe not be able to close the bolt .
I'm about to start my ladder test with the 129 grain ablr with H4350 and may give Winchester 6.5 powder a try in my sig cross rifle. I have seen the old threads on this bullet but nothing new. wondering if anyone has pointers on whats worked with them. I will be updating my load data once i have...
I have a LH Ruger M77 chambered in 6.5 CM. My main interest in this rifle is for training and short-range target shooting (200 yards). I have already found a hunting load with the 129 gr. ABLR, but that is not what I intend to use the rifle for. I am not familiar with what shooters use for...

Also, I believe JD338 has a load for the 6.5 CM using the 129 ABLR and H-4350.

jimbires is spot on, Different rifles have different chamber lengths and throats, not a good idea to use someone else's data on seating depths for your rifle. This tool can help you greatly. Lock N Load OAL Gauge to check seating depth and CBTO.
I use H4350 mainly for my 6.5 Creedmoor, hunting bullets I use Ballistic Tips, ELD-X and M. Bergers for long range target shooting. H4350 grain weights vary from 40-42 grains depending on bullet weight, make sure you start from 10% less and work up. I use mostly the heavies and the 120 Ballistic Tips shoots lights out. 2725-2775 fps for the 140's and 3000 fps for the 120 BT.
You will be happy with the H4350, Creed loves it.
