22-250 Hvy. Brl
« on: December 20, 2008, 11:51:47 AM »
Thinking about getting a 22-250 hvy fluted barrell for my Handi and was wanting some reports from those that have and are shooting.

Thanks -- any and all inputs appreciated.

I can't believe nobody has one of these setups, I'm just looking at what kind of results for 'yotes and if there are or have been any problems with these barrels.

Thanks

I have the fluted 22-250 Ultra, but the only thing I've killed is paper, 50gr Vmax and H4895 gets me <1" 100yd groups.

I got the same barrel but it's on a buffalo Classic (not a bench rest gun :) )

I was shooting 55 grain bulk Winchester bullets to around 1" at 100 yards.  Last bag I bought was 50 grain to see what I could do with a lighter bullet.  I also use H4895.  If you reload, I know mine shows pressure signs before hitting the max load in the books.

What I like is how flat shooting the 22-250 is.  You can get away with a good distance before you need to adjust the scope.  I bought mine to replace a 17HMR I used to have.  I think it's cheaper to reload the 22-250 then by ammo for the 17HMR.
