Thread: Fast twist 22-250 Load advice

well I dont have a fast twist .22-250
BUT I do shoot wallabies etc with 50grn vmax (awesome wobbly load) and occasionally the odd deer or pig falls over with the wee gun doing the tipping over bit....WHAT I DO is dual load...eg carry some other loads in tit pocket..,my goto load for this is at present a 50grn flatbased barnes ttsx and ffrom results so far it wont bechanging in a hurry....IF a .22-250 will group them,and cant see why not as my 1;12 .223 does,they will be perfect for the job...the extra speed and twist will make them open very very well.....a heavier projectile will be better out further BUT it would have to be quite a bit past 200 yards (my maximum for .224 on bigger game) before it would be a game changer for me....the wee barnes work so well.... BM2 is lovely powder to load as its fine ball powder like win748,meters easy and trickles smoothly vs the chunks of log which are ADI stick powder...either will work fine. just finished loading 2208 in .45/70 and it trickles fine and metered pretty darn close ,so the difference in powder shape is trivial thing.....being ABLE TO GET powder you want is a bigger issue as of late...get what you think will work and if its ok grab more while you can. it wont go off in hurry if stored well.
