I just came back from our underground range, shooting my Kimber Varmint .22-250 using Ramshot Big Game for the first time. I used 50 gr Ballistic Tips and 52 gr HPBT over 38.5 gr of Big Game with a WLR primer. I have to say that I was impressed. The HPBTs made half-inch 3 shot groups and the Ballistic Tips did the same as well as made a 5-shot group of about 5/8-inch outside edge to outside edge (not center to center.)

My previous load was 39 gr of H-414 with the 50 gr Ballistic Tip or a V-Max. I will probably switch to the Big Game load when I shoot up all the H-414 loads.
