    22/250 with XBR 8208 ?


    So has anyone tried IMR 8208 XBR in a 22/250 with 52 gr bullets? Sounds like a interesting combo to me.

    I don't own a 22/250 but I use 8208XBR in both a .223 and a .308.
    In the .223, excellent results from 40 grain up to 75 grain bullets.
    The .308 likes it from 110 to 168 grain bullets.
    It is a stable, consistent, and all around good powder for both calibers.
    A little too fast burning for heavy bullets, but great for light to medium weight bullets.

    I got the load I use from here? It was a forum somewhere, one of those 1 in a million lucky loads that actually worked!

    Savage model 16 made only for cabela's , bi-pod rest with bunny ear bag, 1:12 twist, 6-24 Nikon Monarch scope.

    I worked up many loads with 8208XBR but this is the "Cats meow" ;D
