Reloader 7 gets it done with 50-52 grain bullets extremely well.

AA 2200 (no longer available), but were I you, I'd start at about 18.0 to 19.0 grains. This was really a great powder for this cartridge...too bad I didn't buy more than 4 kegs of it when I could have.


My country gal's just a moonshiner's daughter, but I love her still.
