    Danny, have you run the 130,s at all? I've bought a 100 Scirroco,s and was curious on powders, 30 years ago with a Sako .270 I used H4831 SC, now a bigger but fatter and shorter case with the 270WSM so looking for options.
    Cheers
    I'm trying to get to heaven before they shut the door.

    Nah I haven't but Sirocco 130's or Hornady CX or most other stout bullets would go pretty good in a WSM but not with 2225 ADI shows 2209, 2213sc or 2217 would all yield velocities in the 3150-3190fps range.
    The lighter pills do suffer in bc drop though.
    I like the 145gn eldx as they are the best of both worlds and a great all rounder, but that's my choice.
