    Yes. In my older S&L M65dl which has a long lead my best powder was Re22 with AR2213sc a close second. This new rifle seems to like 2209 and 4350 but I've yet to try 2213 in it (180gn SGK's). The barrel is 56mm, so v close to 24" and 10" twist. The COAL's for my older rifle are all too long to fit this new one so I'm reworking my loads. could never get great consistency with 165's in the old rifle, but did get 1 moa with 165SGK's using 59 gn 2209. However, in the new rifle I will have to work up to that very carefully. I'm thinking I am likely to get one more node above 2750 when I can afford more powder and bullets.
