Yes, true. Its also true that your mother should have taught you to have a bit of common decency and a few basic manners.

That is utter garbage. 49er was clear he stated he had 1k of bullets he wanted to use and included the powder options.

He got replies suggesting different bullet weights and powders he doesn't have. The info provided was totally useless. Infact one suggested what was likely way over max. And you wonder why he wasnt appreciative.

really????? and how many years have you reloaded...a 50grn load is going to be safe wit ha 46grn projectile because you have REDUCED PAYLOAD=REDUCED PRESSURE.
my bad I was looking in manual that has 2206 data not 2206h data...FROM MY EXPERIENCE in 223 over the last 30 years,the 2 are that close to the same to make no difference ....but Im not hot rodding loads.

that page is from ADI paper manual 3rd edition.

23.8g of 2206H is the recommended max for a 45gr bullet.

Shush been using it in 223 for years, Richard Wilh..... had alot of it going at good prices, modest charges, great speed, good accuracy and 100% burn rate. Those prices have gone now, Damn.

I have a thousand Winchester 46gn HP projectiles ( WB22HP46 ) that I'd like to develop a target load for. Will be using new brass - Lapua and/or Sako.
Have no need or desire for blistering speed - I'm looking to get one hole accuracy from my Sako Vixen @ 100mtr.
Powders that I have are 05, 06H, 09, VV130, VV133 in reasonably plentiful supply.
Have any of you worked up anything that I might use as a starting point?

Thanks,
49er

Interested to hear how you go.I'm about at the same page but will be giving CFE Blk a try.Plenty of info out there. Long live the fabulous trebly!

That is why Harveys first edition is worth its weight in gold. The book is about "50" years old. LOL.

Greetings @no1_49er,
I used BM8208 in the .222 recently and got excellent accuracy. BM8208 is a dense powder so you don't run out of capacity as you do with AR2206H. I am starting to use the powder in my .223 rifles for the same reason. Your cases will be heavier than the Winchester and with less capacity so a slightly faster powder will help with this.
Regards Grandpamac.

I don't wish to get into a spat , but in fairness it's considered standard and safe practice to use data from the next bullet weight ups' starting charge . If there is none available for a particular bullet weight , that is .
I did check the VV app and there is data for 50 grain bullets using N133 but not 46 grain bullets . The app is free to download. Everyone likes free .

For the OP… you need to post up some picks of your vixen please 🙏

I use a 50 gr projectile in my L461 .222 with AR2206H powder.

I’m keen to see how the 46 gr projectiles work out for you
