If you stick to H380, WW 760, and IMR 4320, you will have just about all you need for your 22 Varminter. I've heard good things about Varget, but I haven't tried it yet as I currently don't have a 22-250 in my safe. I LOVE H380; it does everything I ask it to and any rifle that doesn't shoot at least 1 load well with it definitely needs to be looked at carefully. 39.5 of WW 760 under a 55 grainer should get you to 3550 fps. or thereabouts, and the barrel will last a loong time.
