Case volume is really effected by the longer 130-140g bullets. I would go up to to a 6.5x47 before attemtpting 140g bullets in a 6.5 class cartrige. Essentially its a 6.5PPC and they are well suited for 80-123g bullets. I stick with 100-123 and have loved the cartrige.
If hornady would make a 6.5 SUB-X bullet that expanded at 800-1200fps i could do some wierd shit with the grendel.
Good luck. Its not advised but based on my trials 25g 8208 XBR should be a good starting point but as always use at your own risk. There is a reason you wont find data for this combo.
