A little different slant on loading for a 22-250.

I developed my favorite load for the 22-250 in '79 for a 14 inch twist MIJ Wea Mk V Varmintmaster. Fifteen years later, the load worked just as well in a new Savage 112V, until I toasted the barrel.

34.3 gr IMR 3031 with a CCI 200 and the Hornady 60 gr spire point gave very consistent .75 moa.

Not the fastest or flattest load over the first 250 yds. But I developed the load to shoot beyond 300 yds.

Final note: The Hornady flat base spire point always shot well for me in 14 twist. Not so with any boat tail poly tip in 60 gr.


People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
