6.5 PRC with US 869 load data

[hankhunter]

Got plenty of US 869 and would like to try it with 140 accubonds and 140 hornady interlock. Thinking it may be on the slow side. Another option would be berger 156 EOL
Has anyone tried this combo? Will be using 6.5 PRC Lapua brass, 24" barrel and the above mentioned bullets if someone would be kind enough to post quickload data.
Thank you

I'd say it's slower than you'd want, but Hodgdon does have data for it.

All show a case filled to overflowing (>115%). Doubt that you can get enough in to generate maximum velocity.

Thanks DrMike, does not sound too promising.

I tried it with a Hornady 140gn bthp. It's slow.
