Anyone run a 22 bra with heavies

[Longranger81]

I am planning a new build and have a 6bra right now. just wanting to see if anyone is running 22 bra with 88-95g bullets and if so what kind of velocity you getting. thanks in advance

I had a 8 twist 22bra. I shot 80, Sierra's and 80.5 Bergers. They shot great. I didn't have a chronograph at the time. But when I was using any of the 4350 powder's, I was always at and in-between 30.5 and 31 grain charge. I did try the 88s, and 90s some I may not had enough spin for those. . The one bullet that showed a lot of promise that I didn't get to pursue was the 85.5 hybrid. I'm sure you'll get plenty of response on this thread.

The 22bra Thread

I thought I would start a thread on the 22 bra since I have several different variations of this cartridge in the works for testing. I have two reamers now they are both no turn neck. I have a 150 freebore and a 50 freebore. I have the 150 free bore build all put together on a Kauger arms CRS...

88 gr ELD with 27.0 grain of N 140 gets me 2840
85.5 Berger hybrids w/ 27.6 Varget = 2940

28" 1:7: twist barrel.

24” barrel Lilja, 3020-3050 with the 88’s and H4350 or RL16.

Will an 8 twist stablize the 88 ELD? I just cant get them to shoot
85.5 berger shoots bug holes the 88s shot gun pattern

I haven't got my 22BRA bbl spun on yet but I did test a few 88's out of my 8t 22 CM for stability and took them to 3350 without seeing pressure while I had that bbl in an action.

So we can assume they were stable in the 8 twist and shot well?
