I see a lot of people are using H4350 for the 88 ELD-M’s, wondering if anyone has used any of the VV line for the 88’s in a 22 creed. Just looking for some starting load data. Thanks
 
Not apples to apples but I’ve been running a 220 swift with H4831sc over the 85gr RDF, 80gr Custom Comp and 88 ELD-M. it’s been incredibly easy to tune and find loads with multiple nodes (high and low velo). Also, I’m running a 22” barrel and although I have no evidence but it appears I get a good burn and barrel life has been excellent. I started with H4350 and had great results but wanted to preserve barrel life and not give up much to H4350 velo. In addition, it is much more forgiving with hot loads. With H4350 .5gr took me from no pressure signs and a good load to heavy bolt lift. I still use H4350 in a 22-250ai and 70-75gr pills and cannot get close to accuracy and es/sd.
