I am trying to work up loads for a .220 Swift.Does anyone care to share their pet loads?I am loading 55 grain Nosler bt's if anyone any data with this bullet,but would also like to hear loads using other bullets also.

sll
mine likes 44.0gr of accurate 4350 at 3940fps for 50 gr bt.and 44.0 gr of accurate 4350 at 3896 fps for the 55 gr bt.thats max so work up carefuly.

and it also likes34.0 gr of imr3031 at 3650 fps
for the 50 gr bt.and 33.0 gr of imr3031 at 3509fpsfor the 55 gr bt.these are min loads.and in my gun all 3 shot group one holers.

Try 44grs. of H414 with a 52gr. Speer HP. Also same powder and amount with the 55gr. Sierra GameKings. These are great coyote thumper.
Another powder and charge would be 45grs of IMR4350, same bullets. Pete

Sierra 50 grain BT Spitzer, Remington 9-1/2 primer, 38.7 grains of IMR-4064. Bullet is traveling at 3906 fps 15' from the muzzle.

My Swift load is a 55gr. Ballistic Tip with either 43gr of IMR 4831 or 36gr of Reloader 15. Accuracy with both is outstanding. Velocity runs about 3850-3900fps. I can take it up to 4000-plus but found no need too.

Dito on rplocat's IMR 3031 load. In my Ruger M77V 33.5gr of 3031, Norma brass and Fed. primers with Sierra 52gr match bullets gave <.25" groups @ 100yrds.
