Thread: 280AI data?

Hi guys, I only have 2213sc powder so any load data would be greatly appreciated, it will be for 140 Bt.
Kimber.
Load currently is 61.8,62 & 62.5 for 140 NBT.

@burtonator could possibly help you mate

I used n560 and ADI 2217 so prob not much help sorry

Same here N560 was very good from memory 61 grains with the Nosler 140 flat base bullet. I still have my loads with a .280 and a 7x64 if that's any help?

Thanks guys. Hear 22 is also good powder, struggling to source the other above mentioned powders at the moment that's all.

Those swifts look good. Have you used on deer?
What speed is that and how does it group? I'm looking for some 22.
Thanks for that mate.

Hey mate here is the 140gr Data. I'm trying to get the 150 Swifts to shoot in mine at the moment, tried N165 which is good with the 168 bergers but not great with these so I'll be trying IMR7828 since I had some here.

Thanks bro. I've read all that info, it's good stuff.
I have 2213 so for now that's me, definitely keen to try other powders after these first rounds. Swifts seem like a very hunting deer slug.

My hunting mate runs a 280AI with 150gr ttsx and 162 amax, happy to get data from him if you're interested.

What is the end objective Danny? Long case life, highest MV within some specified limits ? I think you will find that 2213sc will be 100 ft/sec off the quickest loads for a given peak pressure, but I've found it to be temperature stable when the double-based powders are perhaps not so much. Capable of low ES and the best accuracy of powders tried in my 280. If it is doing what you want at around the 62gr mark behind the 140s I'd stick with it.
