LRRPF52 I have a pretty good supply of Data 2200 as well. I could not pass it up when an 8# Jug was $50.
My notes indicate that the starting load of AA2200 is 22.7 grains with a 120 grain bullet. The Maximum Load looks to be 25.2 grains under a 120 grain bullet for a velocity of 2397 from a 20" barrel. Not as fast as some other propellants such as WW748, H335, Tac, AA2520, and several others. Looking over my notes, from my perspective, it would be nice if everyone worked up load data using a 20" AR15. It is hard to do an Apples to Apples comparison of powders when half of the data was worked up in 24" test barrels, and no PSI numbers are listed to give you an idea if that load is too hot for an AR or not.
With the powders that I have on hand. WW748, TAC, and SW Tactical will probably be my first powders to work with. I have somewhat limited supplies of several other powders that should perform well in the 6.5 Grendel.
