    Calikiwi liked post by gimp On thread : Updating a 22-250
    This is a sensible idea. I felt, in approx 2008, that a 1:8 twist. 22-250 shooting the 80gr amax would be a good idea. It doesn't appear that much has really changed - its still a good idea

    why not a slightly faster twist 22-250 so you can continue using your cheap n easy loads aswell,but still have option to stretch its legs with heavies.

    Do it. Mine is 16 I think. Does what it needs to. Definitely suppress it. If using a DPT or similar use a steel baffle.... being a fast overbore case it's pretty brutal in the short barrel. ...

    Extremely quiet and durable suppressors Not as light as others but if the first two attributes are your highest priority then your good to go

    There are heaps of factors. Quiet animals versus spooked etc. The adrenalin of a big red stag in the roar. Its incredible how far a 'technically-dead' animal can run sometimes. The difference in...

    Very much a function of where in the lungs the animal is shot though. It's a good example, but not a guaranteed outcome. Bowhunters need to avoid the leg bones, so shoot for the "crease" or just...

    I'm going to do review once I have played with it some more. The complete Jard rifles come with a two stage match trigger, I am using a Jard Upper on a Kriss DMK lower.

    Yup, I have shot a few groups that look real good, three shots stacked together, then one or two way out of the park. I am having to use a really heavy mil spec trigger so I haven't ruled that out....
