    Well, 69.5gn of 2217 give me 2900 average velocity with 162 Amaxs with Winchester super X and Remington brass, primer is Federal 215M GM. It varies 50-80ft/sec depending on temperature out of my Tikka with 24"barrel, 73.5gn of ADI2225 give me 3080ft/sec average with Sierra 168gn Match King and 3120ft/sec with 162gn Amax.
    Some of these loads are very mild but work for me, best to work your loads and decide what works better for you. Anything over 71gn of 2217 and 74gn of 2225 start get pressure signs on my Tikka.
