Picked up this from another member a while ago and just getting started to develope some loads. Anyone have fast twist 22-250 loads they like? Have some 69 HPBT that im going to start with but i obviously intend to jump to some heavier bullets to see what this thing can do with them. Please dont tell me about your 1-12 or 1-14 loads as there is enough out there to read on those. Thanks in advance.
Imr 4350 36 grains, 80 grain Berger or AMAX, bout 3200fps. CCI 200 primers. I'm jumping the Berger's 40 thou. Have not worked on the amax much. Excellent sub half moa performance. I have hit the 4" gong at 1000 with it. I love this setup. Hoping to go get some varmints with it soon.
Nosler web site has 22-250 loads for the fast twist. http://www.nosler.com/22-250-remington-fast-twist
I shoot a 1-9" twist @26" if that helps at all.
Sierra 69gr HPBT MatchKing over 35.5-36.2 (book max but no pressure signs) IMR4350 going 3300-3340 FPS I shoot this one the most.
Hornady 75gr AMAX over VV N160 shoots very well but leaves soot on shoulders so I went back to a near Max charge of 4350 and it works superb, my best load probably. I just can't find any more of these bullets.
Hornady 75gr HPBT MATCH over a near max of 4350 once again. I haven't played too much with this load but it's showing great promise for a cheap bullet. Half MOA.
All loads lit with Fed210 match primers in lapua cases seated touching or into the lands, no jump.
Working up loads for the 69 Sierras right now with IMR 4895. Ill see how these work, limited on powder selection as we all are so ill be working with what ive got for now. Thanks, keep them coming.
24gr.IMR4895 with 60gr sierra out of a 26" 1:9 right at 2907fps average for 20 shots. and 10 shots usually get covered by a dime at 100 yards.
Froggy that is a 223 load ain't it? He is looking for 22-250 loads.Quote:
