    IMR 4064 has been great for me under a 50gr vmax. It was the first powder I used in my 22-250 and never found the need to go anywhere else. Shoots under 1/2in in my 112.

    H380 was They original powder developed for that caliber, they must have known something.

    I use imr4064 for the 53-55gr stuff but I have found reloader 17 to work phenomenally with 69gr match kings. Right around 37gr seems to be the sweet spot in both my rifles.

    Stomp thanks. I bought some 69 mk to try out

    I've used imr 4895 and H380 with good results. Varget and 4064 are supposed to be great

    I use H4350 with both my 55gr Nosler BT's and 69gr CC's out of my 26" 1:12 twist barrel. The 55's are a lil slow (3,500fps) but they shoot lights out so I'm happy.

    H-380, Varget, 3031,4064 and once or twice some 760. 3031 was very accurate with 52 G BTHP match bullets

    Sierra's accuracy load with the 69 grain MK uses IMR4350. I use H4350 behind a 75 grain Amax and Varget behind a 50 grain Nosler BT.
