Gentlemen,
I have a 16" custom barrel TC which I want to start loading for. I have annealed some cases and have some 40, 45 and 55 gr. pointy bullets on hand. I have plenty of powders to try as well as primers. Any suggestions?

General Comments The Mashburn Bee was popular until the advent of the .222 Remington. It was, and still is, a very accurate varmint cartridge. The recommended powders for loading these small cartridges are similar to IMR 4198 and IMR 4227.
