50 Grain Nosler Ballistic Tips

Anybody got the latest Nosler reloading book? They come out with a new edition each year now and I don't have the $ to keep up.

What's the newest book say the Max load is for the 22 cal 50 grain Nosler ballistic tips? I'm thinking it's around 26 grains.

anybody that can answer...my thanks in advance.

Sorry...I've got a pound of Hodgdon H335. I'd like to use it up on 200 plus bullets I have.

I don't have the latest manual either but Nosler #4 manual has data for H335 with the 50 grain ballistic tip bullet in .223 Remington
24 gr.--3080fps
25--3170
26--3260
They said 24 grains was their most accurate load. They used a 24" barrel with Win cases and RP 7 1/2 primers

Why don't you just get wild and crazy and go the their website? Or Nosler's website.

Just a thought...
