[QUOTE="Gary in MD, post: 2389195, member: 22533"] IMR 4064 is always the fall back powder, if your rifle won’t shoot good using it then it’s the rifle. I’ve been using H414/ww760 in mine the last few years. From what you have listed, Varget will work but I don’t get the velocity that I want in my Swift. I plan on trying the Stabal6.5 soon and think it will work well. I think the others that you have listed are too slow for optimum results. Use standard primers, no need for magnums. Bullet choice will depend on what’s available and your intended purpose. I have always used the 55 grain in the few Swifts and 22-250s that I have owned. YMMV Gary [/QUOTE]
