I don’t have any experience pushing the 88’s faster as I’m lacking any 22-250’s or 22 Creeds, but I think there is merit in “just enough” velocity and vicious twist rates. I do know that under the onside front quarter there was a hole the diameter of a beer can bored through both sides of the ribcage and the lungs on both the moose and the bear. We’ve smashed quite a few deer/moose/elk/bears with 105 Amax’s from 243AI’s with similar distances and bullet placement, and the permanent wound channels from 105’s/ 9 twist are not as big as the 1:7/88, but thats a sample of 7 heartbeats with 88’s this fall so statistically insignificant relatively speaking.
As to the HOW of it, pretty simple to pull the mag block out of a short action Rem 700, and you are there.
