Powders for 22BR with 53gr Vmax?

What are you guy`s using in your 22br`s with 50-55gr bullets.....

More specifically 52-53,i`m hoping it will like the 53 vmax...

I have N135 - aa2520 and benchmark on the shelf.

Is N133 worth a try???

Like to get my hands on some reloader 15.

What is working for you??????

Yes n135 is a very good powder for this cartridge I have been using 29.5 grains of 322 in my 22br and 50 grain v-max bullets remember every gun is different I suggest starting lower then that, I personally think 15 is to slow for that case and light bullets, it might work with a little heavier bullets I have used a lot of 15 in the 6brx and 105 grain bullets and it worked great, who knows it might work on the lighter bullets also but it is awefully dirty powder.

I too have used 322 in the 22BR, and it shot well. Also Winchester 748 works well with bullets in the 50 to 55 grain range. Both powders gave velocities in the 3700 FPS range and shot well. Since 322 worked well for me, I would think that N133 would work also.
 
It burns dirty but WW 748 will give you top end velocity and pin point accuracy if the rifle is up to the task.
 
With 50's....W748 and VV133 are fast and accurate. But absolute best is RL15, a little slower than the others but unreal accuracy. Gun is an early 40X, 14 twist barrel.
