Badlands BD-2 load data

Cody adams thank you for excellent info and photos, well done sir! Any 33 Nosler 250 badlands info, anyone??? 👍🤝🍺🇺🇸💪
I've just started with a 33 SM. Not a 33 Nosler, but pretty close. I tested 4 powders yesterday with the 250 BDII. Not the supers. I used RL-26, vv560, vv565, and H1000. I didn't reach max with anything I shot so far, but grain for grain, vv560 out did the rest in speed. vv565 and H1000 are pressuring up slower, so need to text more. 26 is running close to v560, but I was getting erratic numbers, I think because I left a couple rounds in a warm chamber too long. So far I've only gone from 77 to 80 grs. If I find a good one, I'll post it
 
I have emailed Badlands and asked for load data and they responded pretty quickly. The attached is for 175 grain BD2 for 300 Win Mag

I've started load development for the 225 BD2 in my 338 Sherman max. Using N550 max was 63.8g at 2900. Good node around 2850 seated .025 off. When the wind dies down I'll finish up and post results. My barrel seems a little slower than others. 26" Proof 9.4 twist
Nice! I also shoot these in a 338 Sherman max. I've got 74 gr of N560 going 2940, using a drop tube. They shoot in the .3's when I do my part, on a good day, when my eyes work.
 
Anyone good with quick load??
33 Nosler with 250 grain bullet, 26" barrel, 1 in 10 twist…with Retumbo, superformance, RL-22…..if you have time, please!
