BM2 is $120 a kilo if I get it via workshop innovations, a bit cheaper again though my club, 2208 should be about the same.

I see you are in "HUTT VALLEY" so you can buy it via Workshop Innovations - sales@workshopinnovation.co.nz then you pick it up from island bay. "Wellington Customers - we can arrange for you to collect directly from our supplier"

What about adi 2206 with the 60gr noslers?

Yeah. You will likely end up around 25-ish, but 23 is a good place to start. Remember its only a little case so small increments (.1-.3grn) can make a big difference when you are getting close to max.

barrel twist rate will also have an affect on what results you get and what gr projectile you will get good results from
in my 223 is 1 in12 twist and i started with the same projectiles and and adi 2206h powder and i didn,t get the results i was after so ended up using sierra 55gr game kings and BM2 powder gives consistent tight groups at around 3000 fps. sierra projectiles are not so dear to buy terminal performance is not far behind the nosler partitions
