I am thinking about using some Norma powders in my 6.5 creedmoor with nosler 129 LRAB . The powders are Norma 204 and Norma URP looking for ballpark speed and pressure differences in the 2 and Norma's site not great on reload data.

Running nosler brass, case OAL 2.835, Winchester primers nosler 129 LR AB bullets

Charge weights are from 39-42 24" barrel 1-8 twist thank you
