I found an extra pound of RL 22 that needing using and was wondering if anyone has tried it with the 95 grain Nosler BT in the .243?
Loaded 100 gn. NP's w/ RL-22 for excellent accuracy and an easy 3000 fps. in a 22" brl.

Barnes 95gr bullet

Yep, RL-22 usually gets fine accuracy and top velocities with heavier bullets. It's one of the powder I always try when working with a new-to-me .243.
Thanks for the input folks. I will turn off a batch with RL 22 and see what happens.
i load 46gr rl22 and 95gr balistic tip with fed 210 primer works good.
