What velocity are you getting?View attachment 8053339
22 Creedmoor
This is Alpha brass. LRP. BR2 not BR4.
80gr Berger
39.6gr H4350
I'll chrono the load and post it when I can. This was finalizing load development. I didn't want to chase velocity, just accuracy.What velocity are you getting?
Your 39gr H4350 load is pretty light. I'd start at 40 with the 65 maybe even 41gr.i built a new 22 cred and am doing well with my main 77 Gr sierra tmk load and 39 gr of H4350, but am wanting to build one for a 65 grain sierra gameking SBT.…
Does anyone have any ideas on a starting load? I have h4350, superformance and several other powder Options. Thanks
@Zack G , how about you remove the negative feedback you left for me for laughing at your being a cheapskate? It may be news to you, but feedback is for when something is bought, sold, or traded. It‘s not for when your feelings get hurt from a laughing emoji Perhaps you should understand simple things like that before trying your hand at reloading! https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/the-chode-american-precision-arms.7159477/Not following the format but for the post but I am looking for some advice.
I have everything to assemble my 22 Creed but haven’t had my blank chambered. Any recommendations for a gunsmith? 6.5 twist bartlein, I plan to shoot 70-90gr bullets in a shorter barrel length (18”-20”) any advice would be much appreciated. I know I may have to use solids with that fast twist but thought I’d give it a go.
Maybe @Zack G can go remove it, or maybe the 47 members that have done favorable businesss with @ohiofarmer (myself included) can leave @Zack G negative feedback for suffering from@Zack G , how about you remove the negative feedback you left for me for laughing at your being a cheapskate?

I would break the barrel in with H4350 since it is a known performer then dabble with the other powders after getting some 85.5 bergers to try.How about you all take your petty bullshit somewhere else?
I'll try to get this back on track...
I have 75 ELDMs and a 20 inch barrel coming. Alpha brass.
I have RL26, H1000, H4350, Varget, and Superformance as candidates.
I'd like to use RL26 or H1000, but am thinking I may need a heavier bullet and / or longer barrel to maximize their potential.
Thoughts? Should I just skip right to H4350 since I know that will work?
H4350 has worked well for me using 85.5 grain bullets, 15" XP-100 runs a little over 3000 fps, 24" Rem 700 is running them at 3320 fps.I'll try to get this back on track...

Not n160, but n555 works very wellHas anyone here tried VV N160 with the 75-80 grain bullets?
I'm working on a load with VV N165 with 88's. It's a little slow but man does it shoot!Has anyone here tried VV N160 with the 75-80 grain bullets?
I have a 20" 8 twist shooting 75 eldms around 3100 into a ragged hole. Was 1/2 moa @1000 with Virgin SRP Alpha brass and RL16..... haven't had a chance to shoot any of the 1F brass yet.How about you all take your petty bullshit somewhere else?

That seems like a pretty conservative load as far as MV goes right?I have a 20" 8 twist shooting 75 eldms around 3100 into a ragged hole. Was 1/2 moa @1000 with Virgin SRP Alpha brass and RL16..... haven't had a chance to shoot any of the 1F brass yet.
I run the exact load in an 18", 40gr H4350 with 75s. It's mild in my rifle. By the time I had all. 200x pcs fireformed it was up to 3150 but still easy half moa. 7tw 219 bore osprey barrel chambered by my smith.I have a 20" 8 twist shooting 75 eldms around 3100 into a ragged hole.

Ehh that's up there in psi. I ran 77tmk sierra at 3350 with N555 in warm weather and at 3450 in cool temps from a 22" 8tw. It shot well at both velocities. The 75eldm will be lower psi than tmk due to quite a bit less bearing surface. Thats still the top node. I was running lapua brass in that chamber, which holds more powder than alpha. I tried Rl23 and it'd run at 3400 but the charge was heavily compressed causing high SD. H4350 pressured out early for me, at around 3340. Rl16 may get you there.If I’m wanting 3450-3500 with a 75 ELD-M would a 22”with H4350 do it relatively easy enough without being on the ragged edge of pressure? This would be a winter coyote gun mostly
Short answer is no. You could do it with 26 inch barrel and Reloder 26 at 65k+ PSIIf I’m wanting 3450-3500 with a 75 ELD-M would a 22”with H4350 do it relatively easy enough without being on the ragged edge of pressure? This would be a winter coyote gun mostly
They are a good time! The short life has pushed me to the 22gt. They come up 200fps short, but 2x the barrel life. I still have a 22cm tho, always will. It just sees hunting duty, not much steel target time.Mine runs the 80.5 grain Berger at 3475 with 26 in barrel. H4350. One of my favorite rifles and it’s the wires. Barrels about toast but man I can’t wait to spin another one up.
I wish we could hunt with them. Hers sees more steel than anything keep a couple barrels around but man are they fun. I’ve looked at the gt just haven’t talked my self yet. Can’t wait to build my self one. The nephews is in the works now that will be his first rifle. Because I think everyone should own at least 1 22 creed. It will be hard on coyotes.They are a good time! The short life has pushed me to the 22gt. They come up 200fps short, but 2x the barrel life. I still have a 22cm tho, always will.

It definitely is mild. But it shoots so good, and for the kids so I don't care.That seems like a pretty conservative load as far as MV goes right?
.100 pva prefit put 88s boat tail/ bearing surface right at the neck shoulder junction jammed… on a fresh barrel.So I sold my 22 creed a few years ago and decided I needed one again, so sent barrel and action and parts to my smith to spin it up. 7 twist Brux barrel #4 contour so will be lighter hunting/varmint rifle. Going 18" with Ultra 7 CB.
Planning on shooting the 88 ELDM as primary bullet, with the 77 TMK and 75 ELDM for options. Alpha OCD LRP brass. Smith said go with a .259" neck to handle thicker brass.
What freebore is recommended?
My smith cuts a 260nk chamber, his standard freebore for 75-85gr bullets is 0.100, but I punched it out a other 30k when I received it. It's an 18" 7tw 3b, run a ultra 7 on it. 77/75 shoot well around 3150, 85-90gr bullets at 3050, these are mild loads.So I sold my 22 creed a few years ago and decided I needed one again, so sent barrel and action and parts to my smith to spin it up. 7 twist Brux barrel #4 contour so will be lighter hunting/varmint rifle.

What freebore is recommended?
Absolutely. The other rifles we shot are doing the same thing.Damn, is 22C similar to 6.5x47L or some of the BR/BRA cartridges in that it's just really easy to find a good load?
