Well, I'm ready to start reloading and have decided to use IMR4350. I chose this powder because I can use it for the 3 different bullets I have. They are Nosler 120gr BT, Nosler 140gr Partitions, and Sierra 140gr SPBT Gamekings.

I'm just looking for feedback regarding this powder. I've heard people mention RL-22 as a good powder, but I don't want to start messing with different powders until I get more comfortable rolling my own.
 
Good starting load for the 140s will be 42gr 4350 regardless of the origin of your 6.5x55 . X mil Swede or Ruger/Rem/Win. Low velocity but accurate in both of mine. Workup by 1 gr. increments to get where you feel comfortable with regarding pressures.
