A few years ago a friend of mine gave me a handful of Remington 35 grain .224 dia. bullets.
They are plastic tipped, (like ballistic tips) and the story goes that they were made by hornady for a run of .22 WMR ammo that never made it to the public because of how it functioned in semi autos.

Any way, I have 20 of them. I would kind of like to load them up in a .22-250.

I will be using CCI standard primer, and either IMR 3031 or Varget.
Has anyone used these little pills?
I am not looking for a max load, something safe to start at.

22WMR you say. Me thinks their diameter may be a tad smaller than your 22-250's 0.224"

Measure to make sure.
 
I looked on the hornady sight, and see that they have a 35 v-max.

But no data that I can find.

Does anyone know what the starting load for these with IMR 3031 on Varget is? Using standard primers.
