Could someone tell me what the twist is in the Encore 22-250 rifle barrel?
Thanks

I'm a handloader. Have brass. Getting info for bullets in this rig. I think the common knowledge is with a 12 twist stay with 55gr or smaller. Right?
Thanks
Jim

Rug3...as in Ruger#3?
I reload for 222 and also have dies for 22-250 but haven"t started on them yet.
Whats your "pet load" for the 22-250?
BTW my Ruger #3 in 44 mag has been my "go to" this year.

Yes, Ruger #3!
Got one that I cobbled together from parts in an oatmeal can. PacNor barrel, 1:8, 22", 6.5X55, Keplinger trigger, aftermarket wood that has been whittled into #1 similarity and fitted to me, etc. It's a 4 year story. SHOOTS!

I bought a #3 in 44 mag years ago and got flamed for paying $300 for it on another site.
It sat in the safe for ten years and I dug it out last spring and started playing with it. It is extremely fond of HMS's 300 gr "bear load". It has become my go to brush gun for hunting thick areas in the N GA hunt camp.

I would also like to hear about the encore 22-250 load suggestions. I will ladder test to find node but that does take time in replication and then bullet brand selection and various powders.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

I see four more years of economic stagnation and high unemployment if Obama is reelected. He lies every time he opens his mouth. "The GREAT DECEIVER"! Scary prospect.Worst president EVER.
