    Been playing with quickload and a few newer powders were added. Decided to try Leverevolution in 6.5 Creedmoor and using my son's rifle and case data I found some interesting data. Seems this is a perfect fit for 6.5CM. He shoots 127 gr LRX Barnes but the max load of Lever yields 2887fps, 98% case fill, 29.7% efficient (excellent), 99% burnt. Testing forthcoming. Amazing Hodgdon never had data for it in the CM. Might be a good alternative in trying times

    Guys have been running this in the 6mmARC also with good results. If I could find a lb, I'd try it also.

    There is no data for CM. I used quickload to get a start point. it shot .9 @ 100 with Barnes 127 gr LRX. ES 7 and SD 5.1. He is gonna retest it. He had a flyer and if not for that his group would have been .3
