I've loaded a lot a mmmo, but not the 222 before. Anyone got a special tips or pet loads for a 40 gr bullet?

Thanks

RL-7 From 18.4 grains to 23.5 grains
Remington 7-1/2 Primer

24 grs. of BallC2 and a 50 nosler Bal. tip.

A max load of H322 with any bal tip...the benchresters baby..

Max. load of Vihtavuori N133, for exact amount see the www.lapua.com website, bullets either Speer or Sierra SPT 50 grains or 55 grains. N133 is more much more precise in my rifle (Anschuetz) than the RL12 I used before. Regards, D.

Trry: my sako Shoots 40gr. V Max 26.5grs ww 760
wsr primer win brass. 3400f/s 100% load density. shoots flat out to about 200 yds.

Loading some for a friend who has one, I second the use of RL 7 in this case. Best balance of accuracy and velocity of any powders tried with a 40 grain Nosler or Sierra.

Congratulations on picking an accurate caliber and you will not find any problems finding a good load.

VVN133 and IMR4895 with 40 gr.V-Max bullets have produced some excellent groups in my 222.

Good shooting!!!
