I been hand loading the creed for about 12 years. Very easy to load, and get excellent results quick. I know a few guys that built a 25 cm and the 22cm. I built a 22-250 ai. Shooting 90 gr bergers in the 3350 neighborhood. The sounds of a 6.5 rum sounds interesting.
Was working on some 9mm throughout the weeks as time allowed.
280 ai with 160 grain partitions, has been a go to load just loading some for dope testing.
300 ultra mag with 180 gr partitions or 210 grain bergers
I'm still waiting on a paper form 4. Cashed 7-21-21. Called atf this morning, they answered first ring... Pending. First on took 5 months this one forever. Next one hopefully 100 days...
On my super Vinci with Carlson turkey choke, Long beard lock and loaded 3 1/2" 5s. 100 bb on regular printer paper at 60 yards. I since sold it and got a sb3
300 ultra mag, 180 partitions, 3325fps stout load of retumbo, 280 improved 160 partitions with imr 4831. P dog gun 22-250 improved, 90 gr vld with h4350
I load them @ 3320 in my 300 rum and shoots less then a half inch. I load 140 and 160 in my 280 Ackley and they also perform well. I'll take any extras you have!
Ruger super redhawk frames are the strongest. 357 will do almost anything you need. If you don't plan on a close encounter with a grizzly, 9mm as previously mentioned is enough.
