Does anyone have a fairly recent Barnes reloading manual and would be willing to share some load data for the 40 gr Varminator in 22-250? I have H380, RL15 and Varget as potentially suitable propellants. Mostly interested in min and max loads. An estimation on the muzzle velocity is more than welcome too.
Much appreciated.
 
My Barnes manual (No. 4) doesn't show data for the 40 grain. Only the 36 and 45 grain bullets. That's a little annoying I know, because I recently had a similar issue with my 243wssm and their 80 grain TTSX. No real data in the manual and only 2 different loads with powder I never use on their web site. I ended up using the Hornady reloading data and went from there. It worked well for me.
 
Yesterday I struck gold when I checked out the Ramshot/Accurate/Western Powders website. They have quite the extensive reloading manual on pdf and had a load for the 40 gr Varminator using AA2520. Check it out if you're in the same predicament
