45 GR. BAR XBT IMR IMR 4895 .224" 2.340" 35.0 3666 47,400 PSI 38.0 4007 61,700 PSI
This is off the Hodgden site for a 22-250.
With the 45gr soft point Sierra Varminter, has anyone here created a nice load for the 22-250 using IMR 4895???
I haven`t had a whole lot of good weather to take a day and create a load. Mostly, I`ve been using Hornady V-max 55gr and have them downpat!!! One day I made a "safe load" consisting of: 35grains of IMR 4895 with the sierra`s and they were all over the target. Since then, I threw the other 95 bullets in the drawer and stuck with the v-max 55gr`s. I`d really like to use these up, thus asking if anyone has found the sweet spot in their 22-250. Thanks,Darcy

Did a few test runs today. I loaded 4 @ 36grs of Imr 4895 and 4 @ 36.5grs. I did also have others at 37, 37.5 and 38 grs, but never tried them. Safe loads are 35 grs. The 36grs were great. At 100yrds, I can cover the 4 holes with a nickel. Good enough for me. I tried the 36.5`s and they were almost as close, but I noticed I had gun oil spit back through the rear pin so I never bothered trying the heavier loads.
Yes I know "every gun acts differently" but for new reloaders out there looking for a couple different loads for a 22-250 here is what works for me:
IMR 4895 powder (34.5grains), CCI primers, Hornady V-Max 55gr
IMR 4895 powder (36 grains), CCI primers, Sierra Varminter 45gr
