Newer reloaded here and unfortunately due to the times, the ONLY powder I could find anywhere was Viht N555.
Due to Viht N555 being a new powder, Viht has very little reloading data available on their website. I’m going to follow their Min-Max chart BUT the ONLY N555 data for 140gr bullets is for Berger Hybrid Target 140’s.
My question is, will Viht’s N555 chart for Berger Hybrid 140’s work with my Nosler BT 140’s since they’re different styles of bullets?
I’ll be using this to reload my 6.5 Creedmoor.
My setup is as follows,
Lapua SP Brass - trimmed to 1.909”
CCI 400’s (only I could find)
140gr Nosler BT
Viht N555
I’m intending on loading 40-40.5g @ COL 2.717”, does this sound like a reasonable start?
Viht’s Min/Max for 140g Berger Hybrid Target bullets is 40.1g MIN & 43.4g MAX for reference. COL 2.717” for reference.
