So my wife won a new Savage Apex in 6.5CM from a raffle on Friday, and I've never loaded for one. I ordered brass and dies today, plus a box of.bullets I want to try in one of my 6.5 rifles. I have 3 other 6.5 cal guns, being a 260 Rem, 6.5x55 and a 6.5-06. I have several powders that should work in the CM, and this one will probably be a range gun mainly. If I want a 1200 yd load, should I go for BC over velocity, or try to split the middle? I have some 123, 130 and 140 grain bullets so far. Thanks for any advice!
