Where can I find load and ballistics info for 22 ppc and 22 BR

Interested in these two rounds. I would like to get some info on loads and ballistics for both. I am thinking about having one built as a bit of a target gun and/or a varmint (coyote) gun. As such I would like to know a good barrel twist which will give me the best broad bullet weight range.

Thanks

Don't know about PPC
Much experience 22br. You can find my posts from yesterday. Mentions bullet/distance relevance.
100-300 flat bottom bullet-less room for variance in production-14 twist
100-800...7.5/8
If you let me know what distance you want to shoot I can probably help. I would encourage to look through recent posts by hanblaceya. Let me know if you need help.
 
My 22 BR load ended up being 52 grain Berger Varmint bullets ahead of 31.3 g. Benchmark and CCI 450's @3800 fps.

Also the 55 Nostler BT ahead of 32.6 Varget at 3737 FPS shot good, but not as good as the Berger.

Those were the only two bullets and powders I tried, and I didn't try too hard as this is for shooting PD's and shot in the low .2's...plenty good enough and zero PSI issues.

The BBL is a 30" Kreiger 1 12 twist on a BAT "M" action.

The 22 BR is an awesome PD round!!

Have fun,
Tod
 
I always thought of the PPC as a target cartridge for 52 grain bullets at 200 yards, and pressed hard, basically a 222 Mag. I consider the 22BR more of a 22-250 running mild. If I were to build a coyote gun, it would be a BR not a PPC, and I own a PPC that I love.
