Seafire: Tried some of your BlueDot recipies
I tried a couple of your Blue Dot suggestions in .223 and found velocities were within 50-75 fps of your results. Velocities were also pretty consistent, which is surprising with low-density loads.

I may have missed it, but do you have any recommendations with .22-250 or with .22 Hornet.

Actually, I tried some loads of my own in a .22 K-Hornet with good results: 45 grain Sierra SSP with 6.5 grains of BD for about 2200 fps, and 40 grain Nosler BT with 7.0 grains BD for about 2500 fps. (Please, no one duplicate these loads! They are in a custom chamber and although they appear very safe, I have no way to measure pressure.)
