Looking for bands that sound like Iron Savior, Old Blind Guardian, Persuader, or Manticora; no terrible frilly shirt crap or Nuclear blast fodder like Sabaton. Anything that is fast, has a lot of double bass, and a little bit of a Helloween/German power metal style sound

Stormwarrior? Paragon? Bloodbound (not their latest)? Old Rage comes to mind too. Also, I heard good things about Masters of Disgrace which is a re-vamped Savage Grace by German musicians (who backed Chris Logue in 2009/10), that might work.

Throw Grave Digger and Running Wild in with them as well. The vocals may be a little grittier than you wanted but both bands are top notch power metal speed machines from the old school. Stormwarrior is a killer band and an excellent recomendation by the way.

Lost Horizon. I gave them a non attentioned listen (if there is something like that). You can also check out Cydonia's s/t debut. Link for the opening track of that album below.

a little late to the party but Kiuas seems to fit your description.
Their album Spirit of Ukko was my favorite from them.
