Varget should technically work, but you won't have the nice full case load like you would get with H4350. It would be better suited for lightweight bullets.

I've shot a truck load of Berger 75gr VLD's in a 9tw 22-6mm which is just a little bigger than a 22-250AI and I'm currently using 80gr ELD-M in my 8tw 224 Terminator. Both bullets shoot extremely well.
With the heavies, I'm guessing RL17 or RL26 will be the top performer on velocity with either 22-250 and 22-250AI. RL17 is a top velocity producer in the middle weight bullets for the 22-250 also.

Have you built this 22-250 yet. Would like to see it
I'm currently on what will likely be my last 22 centerfire. It is a 22 Creedmoor as it is the easy button as it relates to high performance 22 centerfires.
Over the years I've used two other rifles quite a bit, 22-250 and 22-250 AI.
Anymore I see forming brass as an inconvenience to get the case you really want which is now available commercially.
The 22 Creedmoor is making gains in popularity much faster than the 22-250 or the 22-250 AI or even the swift ever did.
I find it interesting that the 22-250 existed as a wildcat for over 40 years before Remington released it as a commercially available rifle, cartridge combination in 1965. No internet back in those days and word traveled slowly.

Best pic I have at the moment. I just switched the rifle from a manners LRH into this XRS with enclosed forend.
It’s a Terminus Apollo, 6cm 20” proof carbon. 14lb 6oz with 8” steel can, 10rd loaded mag, and thermal.
BEAUTY! What’s the contour? Diameter of barrel before the supressor, and by chance have any pics of it without supressor ?
It’s a Sendero contour. That’s the only pic of the gun I have at the moment.
Okay thank you. If you happen to end up taking more pics without suppressor, I’d like to see em
Since when did the TL3 become a multi barrel action? Where did you get that idea?
? Well, I have 4 TL3s, and 2 Ti3s..and since every action, bolt face, and barrel combo all headspace without issue, why not?
Just wondering where you got the idea to swap barrels on a TL3
Was it your original idea or did you see it somewhere first?
How did you "pull" the barrel?
I just got 2 more barrels chambered today for 6GT, one 17" shorty and a 24" heavy varmint.
Unscrew it fromt he action with a action wrench. Takes 3 min to do with a barrel vise
Have you heard of any method that is faster?
Every Ackley can shoot parent rd, if headspace is done right.
My Terminus Zeus with quick change tenon is faster than my TL3. Loosen the set screw, unscrew barrel, screw on new barrel, and then snug up the set screw.
Sure, but if I didn’t reload, I wouldn’t chamber a rifle in an ackley improved only to shoot factory parent ammo through. I’d just use the standard chamber.
I think the set screws make it so it's just hand tightened and removed the need for a barrel vise and action wrench..so not faster I wouldn't think. I could be wrong tho. Someone else here would know more on that than I. Im fine just using a vise and wrench and torquing to the same ft lbs everytime I install a barrel.
No vise required. Just a crescent wrench. Screw it on and oogah-dougah it with a crescent wrench on the wrench flats. Same to remove.
Who said anything about not reloading? The question was on factory ammo in an Ackley. I was conveying that you can shoot factory ammo in an Ackley, it's called parent cartridge. When components are tight or if you are somewhere and need ammo, the parent cartridge can be used. I'm pro 22 creed, I've had 22-250 and 22-250ai, and there's nothing they can do that a creed can't. They also have a long list if negatives, can't believe anyone would mess with them in this day and age.
The OP mentioned he wanted a factory round available. Go back through the thread. In that context, I wouldn’t have an Ackley just to shoot the parent round through.
I’m in total agreement though - having had the 22-250 AI and 22 Creed, the 22 Creed is the easy button.
I say skip 22arc, except in ar, and add 22br to that list(for reloaders).
We could bicker for days over BR based wildcats in 22 cal
22bra or 22 dasher, lol?
Not today ISIS
