For the 22-250 using a 40 grain V-Max. What does Hornandy's manual say on the subject to the tune of low, med, and max loads and what are the bullet speeds for each.

    Strangely, Hodgdon, the maker of BLC2 doesn't show any loads for bullets lighter than 45 grains but he does show them for the 225 Win.
    For the 45 grain bullet in the 22-250 he gives 32gr of BLC2 for 3612fps and 35 grains(max) for 3928fps.
    The .225 loads are very similar to the 22-250 giving similar velocities for the same powders and loads. In the 225Win he allows one grain more BLC2 for the 40 grain than for the 45 grain, giving velocities of 3772 & 4020fps. You could call Hodgdon on this.
