130 or 140 bergers

i am shooting a 6.5x47L 25"bbl
currently running 123scenars and a few 123SMK with H4350 at 500 to 575yds pretty well @3"
i am working toward a 600yd f-class shoot sometime soon and i like the bc of the 130 and 140 berger vld's.and am hoping that it will help me somewhat in the wind.

is the 140 too heavy for this task?
 
I'm running the same.

130 Bergers and 123 Scenars are almost identical ballstically for my gun --I use the same data for both. They will both beat the 140s on wind. I can't get the 140s fast enough out of this cartridge to gain an advantadge.
 
The 123 Lapua did not group well for me but the 140 Bergers shoot very well from my 260 rem. Try both you never know.
