Thanks very much for all the feedback, very much appreciated 😀 Really handy to see how it was done using an identical set up. 
I originally chose the Creedmoor round as my RPA .223 is pretty awesome to 600 yards with 69g matchkings, but struggled in windy conditions. I did consider some of the more punchy calibers but the running cost are just a bit too steep for my pockets at the moment. Looks like the 147g ELD match are the way to go paired up with RS60. Reckon I’ll start the load ladder tests in the spring, let’s see where it take me. Thanks again for all your input, I literally couldn’t achieve this goal without your help. 

Morning :-) 
Just wanted to say hi and thanks. I’ve been using this site last year to gleen information on hand loads for my Tikka TAC3 6.5 creedmoor, came in very handy and very quickly established a quality load (139g Scenars 42.5g of RS62) which gives me under .5 moa consistency. 
I’ve stretched it out to 1000yards at bisley with results so good I couldn’t believe it! I’m interested in trying to get out to the mile mark this year so may need to pick your collective brains a bit more on where I can look to achieve that. I’m a full time dad so my spare time is a little limited but I hope from March onwards I can give one day per month to try an achieve this goal. A chap kindly chronod my loads at Oundle range this week and there running around 2620fps. So I’m wondering if this is sufficient to try and achieve the “magic mile”or is it back to load testing to try and run a little hotter? Thanks
