RL22 + .25-06 = O-YEA

[Ridley75]

A while back someone suggested that I give RL22 a try for my .25-06 because I was getting a little frustrated with not getting the velocity that I was hoping for. Needless to say the max load listed by Barnes for a 100 grain TTSX got me to 3,300 fps, well 3,297 to be exact. It also got me 0.50 inch groups. So between the RL22 for the TTSX and RL19 for my accubonds I'm done testing and have settled on my loads.

Thanks to everyone who has provided numerous suggestions.

Just keep an eye on the pressure with temp swings on RL19 and RL22.

I've been playing with RL19 for a little over a year now and while I have seen velocity changes with temperature changes I haven't noticed any pressure issues. I've shot it in temps ranging from 95 down to 45. But don't worry pressure changes and temperature are always on my mind with the RL powders and a reminder is always appreciated.
