22-250 1:9 twist anybody?

[limige]

My new model 12 should be here soon. Opted for the 1:9 twist on this gun. Wondering what kind of loads are working well in these?

So far a have a few hundred nosler bt varmint rounds 55 gr and 100 vmax 55 gr with varget and imr4895 to play with

Someone hear crickets?

69 gr. smk 36.9 gr.h4831 3100fps.-- 75gr. hornady match 32.0 gr. varget or 35.9 gr.h4350 3050 fps. heavy bullets work better out to 600 , 700 yards. MARK25-06

69 gr SMK worked the best for me with varget powder..Bullet just kissing the lands...I could never get those Hornadys to shhot for me

Sounds like 69 mk has a following

I'm curious about this, too. I am just getting started with barrel break-in on my Cabelas Savage stainless fluted varminter 1:9 twist 22-250. So, if I'm understanding correctly, the 1:9 twist will stabilize the Hdy 75 BTHP Match but, not the Hdy 75 A-Max?

Savage VLP 22-250 . . . all factory, one of my most accurate guns. http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae56/Dennis4437/22-250shots_zps49893667.jpg

Cool i have rl15 as well. Good to see she likes light pills as well. I know many people shoot the 75's.

It all depends on your rifle.....Like I said they do NOT shoot worth a hill of beans for me in my McGowin barrel..

Depends on the barrel. I have an 20" AR15 1/9 twist barrel made by Armalite and it will stabilize 77 grains bullets.

The Savage factory 1/9.25 twist .243 Win barrel I have on my BVSS loves Berger 105 gr BT, but can not do squat with the 105 Amax.
