22 Creedmoor HELP

[BigTy313]

I am building a 22 creedmoor with a Proof 18" bbl on a Bighorn TL3. I have peterson brass and Federal GMM Primers. Which bullet should I start loading with? I am open to options, I am just wondering what everyone is using. It will be for coyotes and range use.

Very interesting........ I'm all ears. Tell us more please. Why this bullet over everything else that's out there ? I have an idea why,but I'd like to hear from you,sir. What speed?

73gr absolute hammers & rl26 is supposed to be pretty wicked.

It’s a fine bullet that has a decent reputation for expanding but still have the high ballistic profile. No one ever said over everything else.

I run mostly 80gr bergers... but with the 22 creed, you can't hardly pick a "wrong" bullet.

What twist is your barrel?

Pretty sure Proof runs mostly 7 and 8 twist.

1:8

Then don’t try the 73 absolute hammers. They definitely need the recommended twist.

I’m a fan of the 88 ELDMs, but the 77 TMK will give you a bit more speed.

I’d agree with the 77 TMK, coyotes to deer…
