22 creedmoor load data

[Farmergiles87]

Im currently having a 22 creedmor built as we speak and should be ready in a fortnights time so ive been searching around for load development data for this and im finding all sorts of different data, i will be using hornady 75grn ELDM, 24" barrell with varget powder, magtech primers, and hornady 22 creedmoor brass all if the above i have ready but didn't know if anybody has run varget through a 22 creedmor, ive got some starting numbers but thought i would ask for other opinions,
Many thanks

I would look to the American forums for Varget users. I can’t imagine there are many if any who still have enough varget for use in a cartridge that has been released after Varget was banned from entering the U.K.

Thats what i was thinking, but hoping someone may be using this on here, worth an ask or just sell the varget and find another current powder to use, have two kilos if varget tho,

Probably enough for the life of the barrel then

Farmergilrs87,
You’ve not found many listed loads for Varget & 75 grn bullets because a slower powder is generally used for these heavy for calibre bullets.

You’ll be able to put together some sort of load using Varget but it will be a long way from optimum & a waste of powder (powder which you can’t replace).

Varget way too quick for a 22CM - start at RS60 or N550 all the way up to RL26 (equally unobtanium)

Here's about 7 years worth of collected load data for the 22 CM
