Ok, Varget is right next to Vihtavuori N140 on a burn rate chart. There aren't any powders loaded that low even for a 100gr in Lapua's data for start loads.
The start load for N140 with a 123gr Scenar is 33.2gr, giving 2520fps from a 27.5" barrel. I'm not saying to use N140 and Varget interchangeably, but that load is way low. Where are you getting data from for the 6.5x47 Lapua?
