Michael MichalskiWhere can I find reloading data for LT-32 in .22-250?
Where can I find reloading data for LT-32 in .22-250?
Tried the website and got nowhere. I hesitate to ask for reloads for obvious reasons but need some help/direction. A friend said 36.5 to 37.5 but I'm old school and skeptical.

RapidrobThis powder is slightly faster than their A-2200 powder. It is a fast burning powder for the .22-250 and was made for the 7.62x39 type cartridges.
With a 40 grain bullet and 34.5 grains of this powder you will get close to 4,000 FPS But I would start a 2 grains down and work up.
Accuracy is very good but watch for pressure signs.
This is not my go-to powder for this cartridge as it is a fast burning powder but the grain size makes for easy loading, measuring and is easy to ignite.
I have not checked this powder for sensitivity to heat.

Michael MichalskiThank you, Rapidrob. LT-32 has been the rage with the precision shooters of late, but you know, they will flock to anything new that MAY give an 0.001" improvement. What is your go-to powder for .22-250?
