[QUOTE="Auto-X Fil, post: 306983, member: 19343"] I like Alliant, and Reloder 10x will probably give you the best velocity for 40gr bullets or lighter, and Reloder 15 is probably the best for 50-55gr pills. Varget is probably going to cost you 100fps, but it's proven to be a highly accurate, consistent powder, and I'm using it more and more. I highly recommend trying it as a replacement for TAC. A slower powder like Varget will probably work great with a long barrel like yours. I like heavier bullets for the .22-250. The .267 BC of the 55gr Ballistic Tip is excellent, and will really put the hurting on bigger predators. I'll gladly trade the extra drop over a 3xgr bullet for the much better wind resistance. The book max is 36.5gr of Varget - I'd start at 33-34 and work up, and be very surprised if it didn't deliver bench-rest accuracy and serious ballistics. [/QUOTE]
