You want a fast burning powder in short suppressed barrels so my load was 160 game kings - 39g of 2206h doing around 2350 & shot .75 moa, so plenty good enough for a bush gun.

@Philipo
Resighted her in this sarvo Phil with the new Steiner Scope
2 shots zeroed !!
I have gained 100grms with scope but with the 1-4 x 24 - the 1x with middle size Red Dot on - both eyes open - just perfect in bush
So your Leupold 1.25-4 VX-R is now on Brno .22
Back with loads tomorrow when can find box in shed that nice chap on here did for me
