Best Powder For.........
«

September 21, 2005, 11:27:47 AM »
I just recently got a 22-250 and have been loading for it. But i thought this might save me alittle time. I know there are a few senior reloaders here that have been reloading for longer than i have been walking on this earth. So my question is what would be the best powder for the 22-250 out of a 22" barrel? I have been using AA 2230. It's been showing good results so far but i'm always open for suggestions.

Both group well and it keeps powder choices simple :grin:

There are quite a few preferred powderes for the .22-250. My own is the time honored IMR4064. I shoot 50, 52, ansd 55gr. bullets in my .22-250.,
mainly the 52gr. HP with 34.1gr. It's a very accurate load. Best wishes.

The best powder I have loaded for the 22-250 is H380, like previously suggested..38 grains only I used a 53 gr Sierra.
I had good results with H332 as well these two powders are close in burning rates.
H380 is hands down my first choice.
