    tobes, you keep asking "piece of string"questions...

    depends on how much powder you use and also type of powder. So for instance if you have a short barrel and want more velocity, you use a faster burning powder. The variations are almost endless, which is why reloading is so addictive...

    More of a hand loading thing, so not really relevant to rimfire, unless you find that different manufacturers use different powder or amounts of powder.
