90gr in 1:8 22-250Aai?

[BigPoppaHugeTime]

I have a 20” 22-250 AI with a 1:8 twist. Wondering if any of the 90gr offerings will stabilize?

Not thinking so...

80.5fullbore maybe ????

But a 77 leaving north of 3050 would be a hoot.. and stable for sure

88 gr ELDMs do great out of my 22” 22-250AI. Haven’t tried the 90 grainers though, so can’t offer any help there.

Using Berger's stability calculator with 90gr vlds, I need a minimum of 8" twist and 2800fps for marginal stability at sea level.

What is Your twist rate?

Nope. I casually typed in a few numbers to maybe help a random dude on the internet.

If I turn the speed down to 2450fps with a 8" twist, then BERGER, not me, says stability is 1.0.
