Best powder for 220 Swift?

[meanwire]

What is the best powder for 220 Swift? Just curious what you 220 reloaders are using for your 220 Swift? Don't what to buy a bunch of different kind of powders, just trying to narrow which ones to work with. I'll be using a 50grain bullet if that helps. Thanks!

IMR-4064 is usually the top choice for swift shooters.

THats what mine liked w/55g nbt's. Didn't have to do much load testing.

Reloader 15 with a 50g V-Max shoot like they're on a wire in mine. Most accurate rifle/load combination I have.

I have a first year production model 70 220 swift with a 3 diget serial # Standard barrel 26" long. I load 42 gr imr 4064 with 50 gr nosler ballistic tips. The last group I shot was .325 Hope this helps.

RL 15 work great for me also.
