IMR4064 for 22-250 ?

[Md25v]

I went to pick up some Varget today and they were out. I don't buy enough to warrant a bulk purchase so I'll stick to local sales for now. I use Varget for both my 22-250 and my .308 . The only powder they had in stock that was compatible with both, at least from my reloading log, was IMR4064. I have used that for my .308 several years ago but not for the faster shooting 22-250. Do any of you guys use IMR4064 in a 22-250 remington? What kind of accuracy have you been able to achieve with this powder?

I tried H380, 3031 and 4064 and the latter was the only powder to shoot well in my Xr-100. I don't have any pics of groups but hope to this weekend if the weather cooperates. Gonna try and stretch the range to at least 500 yds if no one is doing field work on my cousins farm.

Thanks guys. I worked up several test loads this morning and found that my gun likes 33.4 grs of the 4064. It shoots just under 1/2 MOA at my sight in distance of 200 yards.

Mine shoots bugholes with 36.5gr of IMR-4064 and 55gr Ballistic Tips. I use neck sized Win brass, Fed 210 primers, and an OAL of 2.445'.
