I've been working on loads for my .225 win. the past couple weeks using IMR powders. 4350 and 4895 seem to shoot alright behind 50 grain v-max's and 53 seirra hp's, but not quite what I want. While cruising around this forum and a couple others I have gathered that plenty of people like varget in their .22 centerfires. The problem is I cant come up with any load data for varget powder in the .225 either in my manual(an older speer manual) or on hodgons website. Anyone know a resource for this info? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
I checked in four new manuals and i could not find any data for Varget and the 225 either. You can contact Hodgdon or try to use data from similar speed powder and start low and work up.
 
H-4895 is a tiny bit faster than Varget, otherwise it has the came chemistry and burning characteristics - use H-4895 starting data and work up.
