Going to be loading for the 250AI, would anyone have any load data and any advise for a first time AI reloader?
Thanks J

100grain Sierra's with 42.5gr H4350 for 3050fps.

110 Accubond 41.5grs of H4350 for 2935fps.

120 Sierra HPBT 40.5 grains of H4350 for 2850fps


85gr Barnes X 40.5grs H4895 for 3350fps

Sierra #5 has 250AI data

I know you have killed game with this cartridge, for a deer/black bear only load which of the ones you listed would you suggest?
Thanks for the loads. J

85 X

80 TTSX - 44 Grs Big Game 2.675" COL 3300 fps

Good luck-you will be xxxxxx.

Jay any 85-100gr bullet w/41.0-43.5 Of RL19. I used to shoot the old 90gr X but they are no longer available. Steelhead has probably got more killing experience than anyone on the forum with the 250AI. I have killed a lot of game w/mine but not near the variety of game as he has. H4895 is also a wonderful powder as well as the 90gr Sierra HP...it is known in many circles as a good .25cal killer. powdr

Thanks all, will share what/if shots well.
