I tried IMR 4350 and changed to H380 because some gun scribe said that if he had to live with just one powder it would be that one. For once he was right (just kidding). 4350 left a LOT of carbon fouling compared to other faster powders, so I stuck with the ball powders.WW 760, H380, and H414 are THE best powders for the 22/250. Top velocity, low ES and SD, and one helluva lot easier to measure. I'm kinda anal about case prep myself, and I want the best ammo I can get without a lot of extra hassle and trial. I stick to what works well in my guns and shoots like gangbusters. I like long case life too, and the more reloads I get out of my ammo the longer time period before I have to buy and prep more. IMR 4320 is the traditional powder for the 22 Varminter, but I bought 16 lbs. of H380 on sale and I'm still shooting it. CB.
