doing alittle comparison here. took me abit but i found a powder the 204 and 22/250 both burn at moderate speeds

powder is imr 4895

22/250 pushn 55vmax 34gr of powder to go 3602

204 26grs of powder to push a 35gr berger at 3576

useing that powder the loads are 8 great difreince in charge but also comparable speeds with 20gr difreince in bullet weight. difrent bullets kinda throw that compoarison off alittle.

ill look for more same powders throwing bullets at the same or close to same speeds.



kay heres a couple max loads useing varget

22/250 55vmax. 36grs doing 3794
204 35berger 29grs doing 3812


couple more of varget useing 40gr vmaxes in both calibers

22/250 34grs at 3625. miumum load max is 4100 with 38grs
204 28.1grs(compressed) at 3647 guess thats max load

both with 50gr bullets
22/250 varget powder 32grs at 3415 minum/ 36gr 3794 max
204 26grs at 3287 thats max minum is 24grs doing 3071

thats as heavy as we go in the 204 for for right now so ill quit doing sided by side comparison there. the bigger the bullet the less powder the 22/250 is pushn to stay ahead of the 204. anythinig 40grs and heavier is taxing the 204 for all its worth to keep up with the 22/250 minum loads that are just alittle richer than the 204s.
