.220 swift
 
Can someone give me a few loads for a .220 swift to try? I am interested in getting a friend to reload it for me.

Here's two of my favorites. Both use Winchester brass and Remington 9 1/2 primers:

1. 55 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip. 39.0 IMR 4064

2. 50 grain Hornady V-max. 40.0 RL 15

Either one will shoot bullet holes touching in my Remington 700 Classic. Per normal reloading procedures, back off 10% and then work your way up to any full throttle load. Good luck. Roskoe

Disclaimer: these loads worked great in my gun, but might blow your gun up. Proceed with caution.

That is the best disclaimer I've ever seen....:D

However, you may need to add "and kill you" to the end, or will that be a tad too blunt?

If your friend reloads he should have a reliable reloding manuals to check out some loads for you shouldn,t he? vangunsmith
