Most accurate 222 factory loads?

coyota1 · October 6, 2012, 10:03 PM

I need to know what the most accurate 222 factory loads are. Hopfully I am going to pick up my 722/222 cal Remington by the end of the week, and I want to bet a base line for how it shoots before I accurize it. Any input from 222 shooters would be appreciated.

None will be as accurate as handloads tuned to your gun.

Few will cost less than your handloads.

Well, I assumed that already. I don't have the dyes, or brass yet, and I only have H335, 748, 3031, and 2230 powders. One or more of these may be ideal, but as I mentioned I still need dies and spent casings.
