I have used 2217 ad 2213sc. The 2213sc was used in the 28" Krieger on my SLR before I went for a rebuild to the current SLR. I can not find the ladder test of the 2213sc, but I do remember 45 grains netted 3070fps. Remember this is my load for my rifle so start under this!

From intial data I have found my figures to be wrong. 48.5 grains of 2217 is getting me 3005fps. The charges are compressed, but they are showing absolutely no pressure and it is shooting pretty well.

If you have not seen the video I posted here, the 6mmSLR has small part in it!! The target size it about 260mm long and distance 640m.
