Finally reloaded some rounds with the 6.5 Staball in our 250 Savage rifles.
My daughter Moose shot a nice group with her rifle, off sand bags at 100 yards.
38 grns 6.5 Staball
87 grn Sierra spt varmiter
Group is shown with rifle, targets are 1" dots
38.5, 39, and 39.5 grns shot good also, the 38 was the best.
No pressure signs with any of the above.
Savage 110 w A&B barrel, Lady Hunter stock

I shot same 38, 38.5, 39, 39.5 grns with Sierra 100 grn spt Pro Hunter, and 38 shot the best also, with noticeably bigger groups, with each higher charge.
Again, no pressure signs with any of the above charges.
My rifle is Savage 110 w A&B barrel Savage accu stock.
FYI
Thanks again for the load info
