    Rl 22 - 208s an 210 @ 1 in 11 Sako shoots good ,( I prefer 2213sc for 208s or 210 - 2850 fps 24" barrel ), N550 for 165 sirocco swifts .. there is a bit said about the 17 all thou not much data ,mainly temp unstable cold to hot if your pushing it hard .

    ok, well i will work up some loads in about 3 weeks and report what i find.... Very conflicting info on the temp sensitivity of the powder, some forums and data say its very stable while some say its no so. I think it all just depends on how the ammo is stored prior to shooting and wether it has been sitting in a hot chamber. So many variables. Best to get my own data i guess
