What edition you looking at I have most of the Lyman manuals including the cast boolit ones. Also have speer. Hodgdon, Vitavouri, and both copies of the Lee modern reloading and reams and reams of stuff in A4 binders. Just making conversation.
I don't have any Varget Blu. The Lapau stuff looks interesting.
Anyway I have some .310 stuff I am playing with at the moment so the 6.5 will have to wait.
wtfwtf zzzzom

Blu the only powders I have are Vitavouri I have given up trying to get hold of anything else. The .310 I am playing with now the 6.5x55 will be the week end when I have more time.

Alpha1, Fair enough. I do recall now SimG saying he couldn't a hold of Varget either. Shame I can't ship it over as I have a fair amount of the stuff and don't use it these days, I'd quite happily give it away free of charge to help out a fellow shooter. Will probably end up giving it to one of my sons if they want it the next time they visit.
I don't know if or how it will affect powder stocks in the UK but over here powder is back in stock in all the shops after all the panic buying at the beginning of the year. Hopefully it will start coming your way soon as well. There's a bit of a lesson to be learned there in a way, make sure you are always stocked up on reloading gear, when the shortages starting hitting here it didn't really bother me as I usually buy my powder 8lbs a time and usually a couple of each. Same with bullets and primers, I usually buy lots of them, enough to last me a good long while.
Just saying.

The first link I posted is for the Vihtavuori powders,, with all the data you've asked for, so that should get you going.
