trailer,

Several powders have a reputation for good accuracy in a .222. BLC-2,all of the 4198s work well. But if I were starting from scratch with a .222 today, the first powder I'd pick up would be H-Benchmark. This is an extruded powder with kernels so small, it almost looks like a ball powder. It meters great and gave me outstanding accuracy and velocities. This is a newer powder in the Hodgdon Extreme line that is meant for the benchrest shooters. I had a good load worked up with H-4198 when Benchmark came out. After a few test loads I was using Benchmark.
