I'm shooting a 20 inch barrel 6.5 Creed, getting 2550 fps w/ the Hornady factory 143gr ELDX. I want to load the 140 gr Nosler BT w/ RL26. I'm wondering if a LR mag primer would help get me the velocity I'm looking for (2700/2800 fps). Any input would be appreciated.

I have a Ruger American 22-250 w/1-10" twist. Would like to try some bullets in the 80gr weight class. I would like to hear from anyone with thoughts or experience on if they will stabilize or not.
Found a old can of H 110 today at my LGS. The can is card stock with metal top and bottom price sticker $8.59, got it for $7.00. It looks and smells right. Can this stuff go bad over time. I load it 44 Mag (Hornady's Max) 240 gr bullet and 300 Black Out 18.0 gr under a 135 gr bullet.
