I love it for my .233's and a 22-250 anyway. I bought a bull barreled G2 Contender a couple of years ago in .223 and started working up loads for it using a few different powders. I wasn't having any results that really thrilled me and decided to try some Varget. The very first trip to the range I had very good results finding a load that shot very good groups, the smallest a .289" and the largest slightly over .4". Couldn't hardly believe it so I tried the same load in my grandkid gun, a Stevens 200. It shot groups in the .6"-.8" range.
I had quit shooting my 22-250 because it makes my arthritic shoulder ache but since the coyotes have become educated from so much hunting pressure I decided I needed something that would reach out out farther than the .223, achy shoulder or not. The 22-250 is a Ruger #1 and has always been a barely minute of angle shooter. My first range session with loads using Varget were ho-hum to but I still had hopes. I continued working with it and have found 2 loads that gave less than half minute of angle results at 100 yards. Later today I am going to sight it in at 200 yards and then see if we can get a coyote in this weekend. I'm heading to the range right now.
