Any tips for accurate loads using 140gr a-frames & 130gr TSX?The rifle is a CZ550 in 6.5x55. It will group under 1" for three shots @ 100yds using 140gr A-Max over 47.5gr Reloader22 and Fed Goldmetal primers.

Welcome to the boards! I envy you and your 6.5 swede. No experience but I hear its a pretty forgiving round and very easy to load for. If you're already under 1MOA you may very well already be down to finding out exactly what YOUR rilfe likes. Have you checked handloads.com or reloadersnest.come? Anyways, wanted to say welcome and maybe some guys on here have a pet load to share.

Soilarch, I do have a membership to load-data.com and they have many loads listed. I'm just trying to find somebody with experience on these bullets in the 6.5x55 so maybe I'll have better ideas about where to start from when I begin working up loads. Thanks for your help.

RL-22 is pretty much the most popular powder for the 6.5x55. I typically use 46.5gr of RL-22 with a 142gr SMK in my swedish M41b.
