If you read the sticky thread on preferred loads you will get some insight on it. Most popular powders seem to be cfe223, IMR 2028XBR, and ARCOMP
Also
1- hornady a-max is discontinued for the ELD Match so unless you have a pile of them I would look for a different bullet.
2- there is too much variance in 6.5 grendal chambers from one manufacture to another to say this reload will work for you. It would be prudent to use published data and work your load up.

This (BCH et al) is all good advice.
One more thing, the word on 8208-XBR is tread carefully with 120-123 class bullets, pressure can spike very quickly on ladders. 28.5 is the generally-used MAX for this powder under this class bullet."Down the floor, out the door, Go Brandon Go!!!!!"

I get sub MOA groups in my 18" barrel with 26.8gr of AR-Comp, 123gr ELD-Ms (similar bullet) loaded to .062" off the lands and CCI #450 primers, with no over pressure signs. ES 11, SD 5.4, 2448 fps avg.
My testing identified this load as an OCW accuracy node and I like the temperature insensitivity of AR-Comp, but I weigh my charges because crunching extruded powders in a measure causes varying charges.I'll be yer Huckleberry.
