I need a suggestion for a good powder/bullet combo for my Winchester Mod. 43/.218 Bee. It will be used for varmint shooting on my ranch..
 
Go to Hodgdon site and check out Lil'gun loads. It's all I use now.
 
Lil'Gun seems to be the current favorite powder of the Bee and Hornet crowd.
I have a 14" Contender in 218 Bee. The current load is 14gr of I4198 pushing a 45gr Sierra. I have no idea on the velocity but it shoots well under an inch. There may be better powders but I also use the 4198 in the 357 Herrett barrel.
