.22-250 Reloeding For A Newbie

[shropshire dan 467]

Hi all planning on getting into reloeding for my .22-250. I've always been happy using factory rounds especially the Hornady superformance 50g rounds which she loves. How would I find the load data for this factory round so I can copy it into home loads

 

 

Kind regards

Dan

could be hard if you dont know the powder in the factory loads !,if you know what the bullet(head) from the pack is you can probably get the bullets ok in the uk ,its not rocket science working a load up that suits your gun its just something that you need to take care with ! is there anyone local that you know who could show you what to do ?

can you get that over here bigad ?

[Bigad 136]

Not sure but that's what they say is in it someone must sell it over here

[devon flighter 421]

would think so wouldnt you, ive always had mither with getting a regular powder supply especially once you have a decent load worked up .oh for a usa supply !!!!!!!!!!!

If you can't find a supplier might have stumbled on a gap in market

MY RFD told me you can't buy the powder Hornady use in superformance - so this might be a new thing or the nearest to what they actually use. Superformance are loaded hot, so your loads will probably be near the upper end of the scale.

[shropshire dan 467]

Oh right. I wouldn't mind the rounds being slower as long as their accurate and consistent I don't mind.

If you could get the burnrate for that superformance powder you should be fit to match it with a similar powder then tune load to suit barrel

I've shot de v-max 50 grain witch 40,5gr hodgdon h380 from a remington 700 vls. Shot very tight groups.
