I'm loading up some 36gr grenades in my ruger 22-250. For powders I have Varget, Reloader 10x, and 4064.

For the Varget I'm starting at 37gr and working up. From the limited load data I found on the new grenades, 39gr of Varget will push that pill to 4400fps :eek:

Any thoughts on charge weights for the other two powders? Not too much data out there for sub 40gr bullets in a 22-250
 
varget 22-250

I have tried varget but have not found an accurate load only about an inch.

how are you grouping?
 
I have been loading the Varmint Grenades in a .223. Just used starting data for 40 grain bullets. Accuracy has been excellent with H-335. My shooting buddy loaded them hot(read TOO hot) in a .220 Swift and we saw some of the bullets come apart.

240
 
I Have Not Had Any Come Apart Up To 4500 'per Sec In My Swift.
I Am Waiting For My 223 To Be Rebarreled, A Model 7 Rem.
The Barrel Was .226 To .227 At The Throat (new).
I Like H335, Great Muzzle Flash
