.222 remington loads

[wadedc]

I have 4895 and varget, does anyone have any favorite loads for 40 and 50 gr vmax.

I load for LR 1k with my .222 Rem Mag. I shoot a 29" 1-8 twist, 80gr'ers, I never really use the light bullets; but if it helps; as for the powders you mentioned'..., I work with a lot of VV- N150 and Varget both product about the same results in my loads; 3025 fps. Taking that too the next step, I think you'll find a little better luck with Varget.

Howdy 436, I just ran across this post. Are you still using the 222 Rem Mag and 80 Bergers?

I use 26gr of 748 with 50gr pills.
Have tried standard and magnum primers, magnum primers opened the group.

Cheers.

Hey, sorry I missed this, no I'm not shooting one at this time; is there something I can help you with?

BL-C2 and 4198 is all you need to know.
