22-250 fast twist

[Lefty Trigger]

I'm running Nosler 70gr RDF's in my 26 inch 9 twist with H4320 and H4831sc and it shoots them very well. My only problem is a very short throat but that another question in another thread.

I have a MPA switch lug/barrel coming with a 22-250 1:7 fast twist 26” barrel and a couple other caliber barrels. For anyone else who’s playing with a 22-250, what bullets and loads have worked best for you? I’m mostly target shooting out to 300-600yds. Thanks.

Hi Week3 have you Shot your 22-250 7twist yet... just finished building one and really could use some first hand experience with the 7 Twist.

My MPA has a 26” barrel. So far the Hornady 88 Grain ELD Match bullets with H4831SC shot the best (single ragged hole for 5 shots at 100yds). I’ve also shot some Berger Match Grade Target 90 gr VLD TARGET and Sierra MatchKing Long Range Specialty 90 gr HPBT MATCH but they didn’t give as good of groups.

The Nosler website has 22-250REM fast twist load data for bullet weights up to 85 grains.

Thank you week3 and RussellJ for the good info. Have you tried anything in the 65gr range like my old fav 69gr STMKs?
