    223 vs 22-250

    Re: 223 vs 22-250 I had a 22/250AI with a fast twist years ago and used 60g vmax? for varmints. Explosive! The rifle weighed 16lb with a 28 1/2 barrel and was easy to watch hits. If I had to do it again I would lose the AI just for the added time in brass prep.

    Range Report Shooting a 22-250 out to 1000 yards??

    Re: Shooting a 22-250 out to 1000 yards?? I agree on not shooting large game at range with this combo. I shot a 22/250AI 1 in 8 w/ 80g Sierra from 1997 to 2001 200-1000. Time of flight seemed to get around the mid bc problem. Look to the Longrangehunting forum for some first hand info. Seems...
