[QUOTE="65WSM, post: 1266187, member: 9551"] What is your cartridge OAL? We have two .20 BR reamers in our hunting posse. One with a longer lead for the 55 Berger and one for 40gr or less bullets. Note that Hodgdon has so much faith in the new owners of ADI (French holding Company) that they schemed with General Dynamics to bring out IMR 4166 with the same burn rate. I have always found Varget to provide the slowest velocity of the powders I tried in any cartridge. My cartridges are .17 Rem, .20 PPC, .204 Ruger, 20 BR, .221 Fireball, 223 Rem, .22-250 AI, .22-6.5 Lapua 40 degrees, 6mm PPC, .243 Win, 6mm Rem, 243 WSSM. I have only pistol experience with a XP-100 factory .221 Fireball. I found that fast [B][I]double base[/I][/B] powders provided the most exciting velocities. [/QUOTE]
