My first and only...

Viht list N-135 for 144 grain FMJ max load 21.1 grains velocity 2037 from a 24” barrel. I think N-135 is just to fast a burn rate for heavier 6.5 Grendel bullets. I’ve only loaded N-135 in 223/5.56. I think N-540 would be a good powder for heavy 6.5 Grendel bullets and N-530 looks to be the best Viht powder overall for the 6.5 Grendel. Lovex has powders that work well in 6.5 Grendel if you can find it in Italy.

There was talk of Sellier & Bellot importing 6.5 Grendel ammunition into the USA but I’m unsure if it actually has been imported. I have no experience with S&B 6.5 Grendel brass but recent lots of PPU 6.5 Grendel brass with small rifle primers get good reviews.

Covid and now the Ukraine war hasn’t helped with ammunition or reloading components. Thanks for posting, maybe you can score more powder.
