I think the Varget may have a faster burn rate than the heavier 6.5’s will like? When I first started loading for the ‘47 I tried Varget, 4064, and RE 15 (120’s and 130’s) but never really tightened groups up until switching to H4350. I have .180 freebore so can load long which gives me extra space in the boiler room. Most of my barrels are 24/25” and produce about 2850FPS MV with 41 gr H4350. It will handle 42grs but groups start to grow. With your 30” tube, you should be pushing the 130’s close to 3000 and into another sweet spot.
