6.5 Creed Deer load

[JGRaider]

Another beautiful thing about the 6.5CM is that it's hard to choose a bad bullet to kill deer with, given the moderate velocities of the cartridge. If I'm in your shoes OP, I'm going straight to the 130 AB as sometimes bone and/or band angles are encountered. My next choice would be the 120 BT. I've probably killed a hundred or so hogs with those bullets and they are excellent killers when you do your part.

I load 140gr Berger VLD hunting bullets in mine. Have killed deer out to 504 yards.

Personally I havent really seen a 6.5 creedmoor not shoot a 140 eldm or 143 eldx very well with 41g-41.5gr of H4350. Obviously start low and work up. But in my experience both bullets will kill deer sized critters.
