222 reload

[bouncer]

a friend of mine is going to reload my 222 bullet cases for me,does anyone have any idea what would be the best amount of powder for most accuracy.

The sierra loading book has very good accuracy loads for each calibre i have found them to be near perfect in all my previous and current rifles ditto for the shaded grey loads in lapua reloading data

Bouncer I don't load for 222. I, am sure if your pal is an experienced hand loader he will know and you should work closely at it with him.

I use 21.7gr of Reloader 7 with Sierra 50gr SP in a BRNO Fox. They are quite accurate. Obviously work the load up yourself.

What bullet weight?
.222 is the easiest cartridge to load for
rl7, n130/133, h322, h335 all good

Don't give him an answer.
What amount of powder??? His friend doesn't know how to go about choosing this?? Maybe he shouldn't be reloading.

Being the benevolent advisor in this case may be doing the OP a disservice. JMHO ~Muir

hes been loading for a few years so he knows what he is DOING.he reloads 223 not 222,i just asked what people found best.what grain head and what powder people use for best accuracy.

 

[bouncer]

that was me asking the questions not him,and I am NOT loading them.

I'm guessing whoever is loading them for you will check his reloading manual and suggest what is likely going to show most accuracy potential based on what powder and bullet combination your planning on using. That would generally be decided by knowing what your going to shoot with it.

For what it's worth I found H322 to be exemplary for accuracy, with BLC2 a close second using pretty much any 50g bullet.

Friend or not I'd let him put his head behind the first round!

Alright then. Tell him any load listed in a loading manual will shoot very well. The triple deuce is known for that.~MUir
