Burn rate shouldn't be far from 7828ssc. Maybe you could glean a good guess from my thread on 7828ssc in the 6.5x47.

I think RL 23 closer in burn rate to RL 19, long ways away from 7828.

I tried some in a 6mm Creed, it seems to be only a little faster than 7828SSC.

There is another post about 7828 working around 42 grains. If it's slightly faster than 7828 it should work with the 140's.

I'm going to try it with the Berger 130's. I've done a bit of searching online but there isn't much out there. I'm thinking somewhere near 42g will be a good starting point as well.

I'll be interested to see your results.
