Hodgdon's load data shows CEF 223 and Varget producing the most velocity in the 50/53/55 gr bullets in 222 Rem. Didn't you at one time put that shat (Varget) on everything?

LMAO. yeah cat kinda beat me to that punchline a while ago,i love varget. made me happy when a pound of it was in my stocking at xmas time.
copy that on the 50 gr tnt/speer bullets too. ill give them a whirl after the varget.
i think part of my problem is too, my 222 is a thin barrell and light rifle instead of my usual heavy/varmint stuff. just trying to get it ...you know 1/2 or less than 1/2 moa at 100. guess its harder with sporter barrelss
maybe ill try the rl 7 down the road.
ok another quick question. i just ordered a redding bushing neck die for .245" plus a full length die from sinclair and on the email/shipping reciept they have it marked as a full length sizer die redding 222 rem MAGNUM........ is it going to work fine on a regular 222 REM ???? thanx
