    2225 powder. Do you have some not needed

    doing a bit of loading with the 180gr VLD's pills and 2225 in my 7mmSAUM, I had a bit of 2225 left from when I ran the heavy pills in the RUM to get a few tests done but not enough to do a decent group test, went to get some locally but they had no stock. Does anyone have a part bottle they dont need that I could buy off you? Save me finding stock just to check if I want to use it?

    Got a little more speed with V100 but with 2225 8 shots with 5gr difference in powder went in to 1.5" at 100 and I had enough to test a couple of 4 shot groups in windy conditions and it looks like it will group mint... but it would be nice to try some more before buying a couple of tubs of it.

    I will be getting in touch with a couple of suppliers to see if they have stock.... but if you have some doing nothing I will grab some

    I have found, depending on the age/batch, there can be variations in speed & pressure between batchs.
