Reloader 19 Or N140

[sean223]

Hi all. Going to be loading 75gr ELDMS in my 22-250 1-8 twist for long range varminting. Anybody using any of these two powders?? Does any of these two powders work with the heavy bullets in 22-250. Thanks.

good morning ,i have used both powders and find the reloder 19 gave higher velocity but is a dirty powder in my rifles ,also n140 is <usually> easier to get hold of. <nothing is at the moment !>

What speeds, bullets etc were you using?

i was using 75gr ppu match bullets at 2950 fps in a 1 in 7 twist using the reloder 19 and the n140 was 60 fps slower! but slightly better accuracy and only 1/2 " difference in drop at 150yards,i was given some 75gr amax and there grouped well but slower.

I use 80 grn eld m with N140 and get 2910 fps from 24” bart’ln barrel 1-7
