Bravo one or rev 4 would do it.

What engine/drive combo on your 22?

My brother's 22 with a OMC King Cobra 454 runs a 22P x 14-1/2 OMC Raker (cupped 3 blade with a vent on the hub). Gets 5500 RPM.

What combo?

I'm running a 496 HO.
I get the better top speed (77-78 mph) with a 27 Mirage Plus tapping on the limiters door at around 5200 rpm.
I also run a 28 Bravo I (carries the weight better when loaded with people), it tops out at (73-74 mph) at around 4800-5000 rpm.

The 27 Mirage Plus (3 blade) seems to give more bow lift and runs real loose while the 28 Bravo I (4 blade) runs more stable.

Hope this helps.

A labbed B1 sounds like it might hit the sweet spot you are looking for.

Labbd B1 after stock base line testing would be my best option.

where to start what pitch

a prop that works REALLY well on older 22's is the Hydromotive QIV.

My brother tried the Bravo 1 and hated it. He liked the hydro a lot... swore by his old 3 blade cleaver but could never find one big enough for his power after he upgraded.
