I have recently received a 6.5 mold from the group buy (thanks John)
and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction reloading with A2400.
thanks

Reloader's reference lists 20gr of 2400 for 120, 130, or 145gr boolits. I guess that's a ballpark.
Just got back from the range, and running the 170 gr. lee from my long bbl Swed over 13.3 gr. 2400. Shot very well at 50 yds. 10 shots stayed under 2".

I haven't had much luck with 2400 in my M96s using the 6.5 kurtz bullet at least. I started with a load of 16gr and got about 1450 fps. I went all the way up to 18 gr but never got very good accuracy. I ended up switching to around 12.0 gr of unique and was getting 2" groups at 100 with my M41B. A lot of people swear by slower powders (rifle)for the 6.5x55, that's going to be the next thing I try.
