ReloaderAA Data 85...
Anyone using it?
I've got 8lbs and thought about trying it in 22-250. I can't find any data on the stuff for 22-250 but, I have found data for it in 220 Swift. I figure with 50-55 grners 3-5 grains below the Swift Data should get me in the right range.
Thanks,

I will be faced with the same situation next week . supposing that the info powder valley is puting out is true ,I had planned to start with 37 gr. of 85 behind a 52gr Berger FBHP and work up. One of my 22-250s shows higher pressure than the other so I will hold back a little and not go for 39 or 40 gr. that you might think is indicated. I also intend to start with CCI # 34 primers and the bullets almost touching the rifling.
