243,
I have a load on my bench for the 140gr Berger VLD in my 6.5 Swede in which I am getting 2725fps as measured ten feet from my barrel. My powder that I've always gotton great results with is RL-22. I also load RL-22 under the Hornady 129gr. and get a MV of 2674. Yes, I know your looking at those number and saying Wha???....but if my memory serves me right, I think (and if you request I'll look up the load data) the Hornady data was the maximum Hornady book load. This shot so well "out of the gate" that I didn't bother to fool with it. In fact, I took my very first WY antelope with this load. (The 129gr. Hornady) It was bang....flop....grill......MMMMMMM!!!
