Just bought a 22-250 encore barrel. Gonna kill some coyotes with it (hopefully). So far I've loaded with Hogden 4895 and IMR 4895 and Varget. From the min. to the max in each. All grouped about the same. Seemed to do a little better at higher velocities. Shooting 55g varmit nightmares. Any and all opinions welcome. What's your favorite load?

I haven't used the 55 grain bullets in the 22/250 but 50 grain Remingtion hollow points and 35.6 grains of H4895 in Winchester brass and WLRP primers will print -.25MOA groups in a Savage model 12 and nearly as well in a Ruger #1. I can't gaurantee this good of accuracy in every rifle but I think it is worth trying.

Currently I use the Sierra 55 gr ballistic tip type bullets in my M700 ADL with 24" barrel. I've tried numerous powders including ones you mention in this and other 22-250s. I keep coming back to H4895. It meters/throws very uniformly and in FC or WW cases over 34.5 gr pushes those Sierras at 3600 (M35P) fps into less that 1" at 200 yards. Close enough for brier coyote.

I have had good luck with hornady 52 grain match h.p and imr 4064. Half inch groups and usally dosent exit on coyotes.
