22 ppc with heavies

[wildchild]

Anyone heard of a 22 ppc shootin like 75-80 grain pills? It would have to just shoot wouldnt it? ;D

Sure it would.....with a 7 or 8 twist.......

A friend of mine uses the older JLK 90's in his 22BR at 1K and does quite well with. But I have not met up or talked to anyone with a PPC. It prob will work with 80 grain series of bullets, but I don't think that I would try to take it beyond 600 yards. At one time Scott Medesha built course guns in 6PPC. But that has been a while ago.

I shot a .22 PPC with 80's for a long time, great combination. I used a 1:8" twist barrel, mostly Berger 80 VLD, but also tried some 75 Berger and 80 Sierra. Best powder was RL15. I even wrote a piece about it, click here: http://www.6mmbr.com/gunweek067.html

Hey brother German (2005) it has been too long for you out of the mix. Come back in.

i have a great shooting Shilen Action with 28 inch Bartlein 1-8" and it shoots the 75's and 77's better but i am trying to get it to shoot the 80 SMK and Bergers. I'm at 24.0 Varget now and will chrono hopefully this week and shoot it at Blanding on Dec 4th at 600. If not I will likely be there with a 6.5.
