    New 22 cal for varmints - What to chamber 22-250, 22-250AI, 22GT, 22 Creed?

    I have a 22-250, 223ai and a 22 creed. The 250 hasn't been shot in probably 4yrs. I run 80gr eld in the 223ai at 2950fps and 90gr Berger or 88 eld in the creed at 3150fps. The creed can run those bullets at 3350fps but my barrel is a 7 twist so I'm playing with fire on over spinning the bullets...

    Barrel twist for 223AI shooting 80s or 90s

    7 twist runs 80's perfectly at 2950 from my rifle.

    REM. 700 Bad or Boring?

    The action certainly has the potential if the desire, time and money is acceptable. Look at what Mike builds at Tacops. They aren't exactly a 700 except maybe a shell of one.

    New action advice

    Mike your reputation is extremely well known so I say this with the utmost respect but you are literally the only person I've heard complain about cs at impact.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 5-25 PMII Still a Good Choice?

    Possibly but not definite.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 5-25 PMII Still a Good Choice?

    Shot big matches for 4 years with tons of 1 days and haven't rolled one yet. I've heard guys say it happened but never seen it or experienced it. Which podcast? I shot with Tate several times this year and he was running what seemed like a different scope each match.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 5-25 PMII Still a Good Choice?

    Why are locking turrets such a huge deal? I use my stuff pretty hard and have yet to spin a turret unless I was meaning to.

    Custom actions

    They run the best in all conditions. Clean dirty dry oiled doesn't matter. Both are top notch people.

    Custom actions

    Only one I would choose right now is impact or lone peak.

    Want to say I was around 43.5 on the higher node but I'm not around my notes at the moment.

    223 Hornady 75gr ELD Match: better than 175 SMK 308?!

    I run the 80's in my 223ai running 2950 with 8208 and lapua brass. It's a great little bullet. They feed fine out of my accurate mag 223 mags.

    Suppressed Shorty Bolt Action Varminter

    Running 80gr eld at 2950 from a 21" 223ai. It's a true pleasure to shoot. Never ran anything lighter than a 75gr and those were for fireforming.

    Fast Bolt manipulation video

    If that's the same year I'm thinking of Cory West of team AI shot that stage either really fast or had most hits.

    Impact or loan peak Fuzion

    Travis at ts can probably answer this as he chambers a lot of lone peaks and impacts.

    Surgeon Actions...what is going on??

    Be patient.

    223ai stock

    Stock design doesn't dictate feeding. Bottom metal fitment in relation to mag depth does.

    168's in 7mm-08?

    I've ran a ton of Sierra 168 out of my 7mm-08ai with a 22" barrel. Varget was always my go to for powder.

    Stock design and trigger hand placement

    A couple of those OG foundation runners do have some pretty big bear paws for hands though. If John Kyle would just add more palm swell like the manners have I'd be running them over the rest.
