Question about 6.5-284 Norma

Yes, you can use either set of load data.

With the ever present reminder that all loads need to be worked up for any given rifle.

Mine prefers H-4831sc and 139 gr Lapua Scenars. Berger 140 gr VLD's are a close 2nd.

I'm using Lapua brass.

Thank you! That's good news, I kind of figured you could but I thought I should at least ask someone who owns one to make sure.
I always work up loads from lowest listed data on every rifle I have. My friend has not reloaded before and I have no experience with this particular caliber (I mostly reload 308 & 6.5CM rifle and most pistol calibers). He currently has no supplies (other than what I will help him with to get started). He is still trying to decide if he is going to sell this, or keep it.....If he decides to sell it, I may end up with it (which is also the reason for me asking about this caliber), plus....I'm a sucker for nice rifles..lol
