What velocity's you wanting?

I am looking at some now, some are producing high and medium velocity's.

Never actually tested these loads, but just browsing through
Loaddata.com
Reloading manafacturers also have all there data.

When you say in 55grn, you talking 55grn bullet?

Thanks

ive only played with 2206h and 2208 and found 2208 much better in my rifle,
Currently using it with Nosler Ballistics for long range shots and sierra game kings on pig n goats, both in 55gn.

In my 22-250's and others I have done loads for BM2 has been an excellent powder.
2208 has also worked well.
cheers

I'm having a great deal of success using 35 grains of Benchmark2, 55 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips and Winchester primers.
I have the Ackley version but that should still be okay with your rifle.

Yep agree with the above, My Sako 75 Varmint in 22-250 likes BM2 and 2280. I use 55gr Blitzbings and Nosler BT's. Running 36 of 2208 and around 34.5 of BM2.
