.218 Bee advice?

Post by Beaver Creek on Sat Oct 01, 2011 10:59 am

I'm starting to load .218 Bee for a Ruger No 1. Any advice on an accuracy load using Lil Gun powder? I'll start with 35 gr VMax and 40 gr Nosler Bal Tip.

I've loaded many other calibers but this is my first .218 Bee. I went ahead and did 10 rds with 13.5 LilGun and 10 rds with 11.0 H110. Both loads COL 1.770" with no crimp. I'll see how that works out.
