    I haven't done any tests between the two of them myself.

    Every cartridge & primer combination will be different.

    We generally don't have the temperature variations here that other countries do.

    2225 will provide more velocity than 2217 & is way more stable than say US869.

    Have a look at this test done in Aussie.

    Rifle powder temperature sensetivity

    You should probably do some tests & see if the powder is suitable for your requirements.

    If you do please let me, I would be very interested along with many others
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc
