Well like everyone else I use H4350 in my 6.5CM but surprise surprise , I have an 8 lb jug of IMR 4064 and was quit surprised that I get incredible accuracy with 130 ELD m's and am getting 2,700 fps. would have never imagined but since I have a good supply will probably shoot it for a while.

4064 used to be the "darlin" powder for bench shooting (for a LONG time). It's a very useful (and kinda forgotten) powder for accurate reloading. I have 8 lbs myself (well 7 now) and it's often a goto when I need a good, reliable load. Close to varget and especially usable if you drop down a bit on bullet size (in the 6.5 class guns) where it can give VERY good velocity. I'd be happy at 2700 FPS putting that bullet in the ring every time.

I have been testing a few loads with LVR. No issues. My Hornady app has load data for it in 6.5CM, but I have had great results with it in Grendel also.
