2920 is about a grain below pressure. 10 shot groups are 1.1MOA at worst, IIRC. It has good vertical at 700 yards and beyond at sea level so the load is more capable than I am in the field..so it does everything I need it to.I have to ask though, is 2920 where you got the best accuracy and SDs?
I can run my 6.5 creed beyond 2800 with 147 eldms and H4350, but accuracy and an SD of 4 is at 2700.
A 134 eld at 2900 drifts 1.71 mils at 1k in a 10mph L to R crosswind, impact velocity 1730
A 147 at 2700 drifts 1.76 mils with an impact velocity of 1662
That's with me reducing the 6.5 velocity significantly for optimal match shooting
Comparable groups/loads in a factory 24” tikka 6.5 creedmoor were 2720 after trying multiple powders to get it there.
Maybe there is a better node with less velocity but I stopped believing in nodes and haven’t looked back
