Quick load data

I have seen several guys post load recipes and some one else posted quick load psi for that load?

I dont konw about this..
what do you think of this one. 6.5 creedmoore 45.0gr RL17, rem 91/2. berger 140 vld. 2.990 oal..24" barrel..?
 
what i can find is the 6.5 creedmore is 53 grains of H20..
thanks dave..yea i have enough stuff and gadgets..i have never messed with quick load.
in my rifle the load showed no signs of pressure at 2,887 to 2,975 FPS at 45.0grs RL17. now 44.5 showed better ES around 2,925-2,935FPS.. so im still testing and trying to figure out to get this powder to shoot well at a low ES.
as i have had great velocity with this powder but have never had it shoot well.. now i have a load with the 6.5 creedmore 140 vld. 2.880 oal..42.5gr IMR 4350. rem 91/2 primer. 2,710 FPS @ 10FPS ES. 5 shot groups at 100yrds in the mid .300's.. factory rifle..savage 10 predator hunter...I'm really likeing the cartridge.. I if i can get it to shoot 2,950's wow! even more..

Problem is not all 6.5 Creedmore chambers are cut equal. Also the case length affects the H2O capacity readings. Accurate data is required for accurate results. Garbage in, garbage out applies. You got a ballpark and this sounds like what you were after which is fine as long as you understand this. It, QuickLoad S/W, sure is a great tool and beats watching what my Wife has on TV at night! ;D
