I have some of what was at the time called DATA powder Accurate 2200. It is pretty fast burning about like H322 and my understanding was that it was created for 7.62x39. I have loaded a BUNCH of 223 with 55 gr IMI FMJ bullets and it shoots really well. I have some load data that came with it. I have not tried any with the 6.5 Grendel YET. I say YET because I do intend to see what it will do with some 90 gr Speer TNTs when I get time and when the weather allows me. If you give it a try lest us know the results.
By the way I got my 2200 powder at least 20 years ago and it was CHEAP. I got it because a friend that was in the commercial reloading business gave me an 8 lb jug and it did well so I bought some more. I can't remember the exact price but I want to say $25 to $30 for 8 lb. I was also getting pulled down IMR 4898 in that price range and it all shoots today as good as it did back then because I just shot a few round the other day to test it.
