Anyone who uses the .222 Rimmed got a pet load they want to share ? I am about to load a batch with AR2205 powder and could use a bit of guidance...Also have some Norma 200 powder .

I have 30,35,40,45,50 and 55 grain projectiles to choose from , plus the download from the ADI website so I can tough it out myself if necessary .

I read somewhere that the rimmed version of the .222 cant be loaded to the same pressures as the standard case type . Any one with a pet theory on that ?

Thanks BA. I was hoping for a tried and tested load for AR2205 because thats what I use in my Hornet and I have a full can of it . I have lots of other ADI data off their website so shall make a best guess based on that .
So many goats to murder , so little time to load ammo....

I use 2207 for all my loads.
20.5gn 2207 with the 40gn Nosler BT for 3300fps
19.8gn 2207 with a 50gn SP for 3080fps

Both these loads will group about MOA. Both loads give effortless extraction and long caselife in my rifle.

I've always found it easier to take them off after or as my mate says, use plenty of gun and it'll be hard to tell if it was dog
