Hint. Congratulations?!? You be sure to interject some more Estrogen and Emotion,to frost your Retardation. Hint. LAUGHING! Bless your heart for doing your best and TRYING so hard. Hint.

How fast would you need to spin those, what twist? DF I've run the 90gr Berger in a 1/8 so I don't see why the A-tip would be much different. The 90 Beer Can is longer than the Booger 90. Length,not weight,are which determine requisite RPM. Hint. The 88 ELD's BC is better than the 90 Booger to boot and if only for starters. Hint. We'll save Atmospherics,for your next Try. Hint. LAUGHING!................. I haven't read the specs on the A-tip yet but if I remember right Berger says the 90gr needs a 1/7 also but in a 22-243 the 1/8 was fine. I'm sure a .223 will need a 1/7. I like ELD's...the 285gr and my 338 rum get along well.

Sure the 75 grainers at 3400 fps out of the 22” 22-250 are hell on deer but the taper case of the 22-250 makes them terrible for stacking in a mag compared to the 22 creedmoor. Plus I’ll take some extra velocity cause why not??

Hint. I'd much rather that approach,because I essentially get a free Test Drive,to have a feel for fouling,stringing and the like. New barrels,no matter the particulars,are always an unknown. Within that spectrum,there are obviously some higher percentages,that are easy to play,but KNOWING will reliably trump guessing. Hint. I've punched ALOTTA barrels out,chopped ALOTTA barrels,reduced contour on ALOTTA barrels and fluted ALOTTA barrels and never with a regret. Those being barrels I've shot in the firsthand,from inception and altered after the fact. With a SALAMI '250 in 8" RPM or better...I'd send it to Kali and let The Kid work his literal Magic. Hint. What rifle/twist on the existing '250? 75's have long been Amazin' and they keep getting better. Few things have made me cringe,like the announcement that the .224" 75 'Max was on the chopping block,with the ELD laying in wait. The ELD is certainly more Slickery and only got better. Hint. I'd not shoot a Deer with a .224" of any flavor. LAUGHING!................ Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

Congratulations?!? Even as Great as I am,I simply cain't gun it,until it's Invented and ready for purchase,if only to the chagrin of Window Lickers everywhere. Hint. Don't fret none,I'll break trail and you can try to ride coat tails,despite not having the "means","abilities" or "comprehension". Pardon the fact that I simply shoot it all and then some and am afforded the luxuries,of not being forced to guess and the HILARIOUS fhuqking dichotomy,that a guess is always the "best" you can "do".

Hint.(grin) Drab Bitches are easily arranged,for folks who actually shoot. Hint. The G3 reticle trumps prior efforts and while I prefer The Matte Bitch in both 12x and 18x(due the reticle's subtension and Illumination),The 'Drab's are fhuqking SOLID performers. Hint.
