H4895 & 50grn bullets in the 22-250?

[long40shot]

Is anyone using H4895 with 50grn bullets in a 22-250? I'm hoping to find the most accurate load i can find using Hogdon extreme powders.

4895 is very popular with 22-250 shooters.

4895 class powders could be considered the go-to stick powders for 50g-55g. RL15, 2495, 4320, 4064, 202, 203B, N135, N140, varget etc. 8208 is also close to H4895, 8208 could be called a quick 4895 class powder.

I use 35.3 gr of H4895 and 59 gr Nosler BT or 50 gr Hornady V-Max in both of my 22/250's. The Cooper sporter is a consistent sub-1/2" for 5 shots and the Rem 700 sporter shoots 3/4"to 1" for 5 shots with this recipe.

CAUTION: This load is at the top end of the manual and I have found it to be a bit warm in a couple of other 22/250's so start a bit lower and work up.
