[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 2350593, member: 69192"] I don't consider myself and expert, nor do I consider myself an "uninformed naysayer" either. The OP was looking for load data using 4831SC with/for, [I][U]"55 gr. NBTs or Hornady VMax[/U][/I]". And......yes one can use 4831SC to load a 22-250, but......there are better powders out there to use with the bullets that the poster was looking for load data on. Could even use Bullseye if one chose to, but.....it is not the correct powder for that particular cartridge/bullet combination.
