No need to buy anything. A lot of good loads right here:

Or just ask on these forums.

The Norma book has a pretty good listing of 22 BR, and the Hodgdon web site also. jd

Berger book has several pages, and the Sierra has it also.

What barrel twist and what weight bullet are you wanting to shoot?

And one thing to be aware of when building loads for the 22 BR. DO NOT assume you can dump powder in and go shooting. You can't bump up the powder charge like the bigger brother (6BR). You have to go up a "little at a time". You won't have a big enough hammer to beat the bolt open and you won't be able to replace the junked brass fast enough. Been there, done that!! Other than that, the 22 BR is deadly accurate.

I'm using LT32, I don't remember the charge offhand but I just used Hodgedons online site and went with H322 data. It is supposedly identical to the old T32 that everyone loved in the older days. Mine is a 12 twist as I wanted to shoot 40gr ballistic tips. Didn't like them as well as 50gr BTs and 52gr bergers
