As the title says, I'm looking for load data for 222 Rem and Vihtavuori N133 using 50gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips. Currently, I'm working up some loads using BL-C(2) but I think the 133 would really shine in the 222. Thanks!
 
Chris, I looked in the latest reloading manual by Vihtavuori and they do not list the exact load you are looking for, but the data still may be of some help to you.

The 3rd Edition of the Vihtavuori Reloading Manual shows loads for the 222 Remington using the 50 grain Hornady SXSP with N 133 powder. The starting load is 22.2 grains with a velocity of 2969 fps. The maximum load shown is 24.0 grains for a velocity of 3215 fps.

This should give you a place to start.

Hi,
I am loading these rounds for years now with 19.2 grain of Vith. N120 and they are performing very well in my Steyr-Mannlicher op to 250 metres.

What kind of velocity are you getting with this load?
 
hi,
I do,nt have measured the speed, do,nt have the equipment to do this, I carefully built up this load and it is performing very well.
