My Sako does not like A2230 for some reason. I probably needd to work up more loads, but when it shot .5 with the H4198/ 50 grain Vmax, I quit and mooved on to red mist.

My Sakos seem to digest AA2200 very well with 50+52g. pills. BTW, what's a Sako L1, do you mean A1 or L461?

I just worked up a new load for my older Remington 722 222. Barnes 36 gr Varmint Grenade over 23.4 grains of H322. Federal 205 primers and Winchester brass. It shoots groups of 5 rounds at 100 yards just over 1/2 inch.

I wanted to work up a round for this bullet because I have a bunch of these 36 gr VG's. Can't wait to take it and test it on the sod poodles!
