garygreengrass Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 I am getting a 22.250 any good recipes with varget powder? Using varget with my .243 so I would like to stay with the same powder. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 I used 36 grains of Varget in mine, with 55grn V-Max. Not a lightning load by any means, but very consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mallet Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Similar as above 36g of Varget, CCI 200 LR Primer, Nosler 55g BT, Remington Brass, a consistant load and devastating on the foxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hill billy Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 It works out cheaper yes dependant on what components you use, but the accuracy is depending on how much work your willing to put into the preperation of your rounds, if you try different seating depths, bullet head types, powders and primers then yes you will get a more accurate round because you talor make them to suit you and your gun so it is worth doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dully1963 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hi 38grns of varget with a 40grn pill is a good tonic for reynard 38grns also works well with a 52 grn Amax and the 55 grn Vmax this ia a hot load so work up to it to be safe the 40 does just over 4000fps out of my 22" Tikka but will vary from gun to gun hope this helps a bit all the best Andy (dully1963) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
