Heavier than 55grn bullets in a 1-14 22-250
« on: April 27, 2007, 04:47:58 PM »
 Most notably bullets such as the 64grn Winchester PP the 60grn partition, Will a STD twist 22-250 shoot em accurately.

 I see that Winchester now loads the 64grn bullet in factory 22-250 ammo so I would assume the answer would be YES, but ya never know.

My Remington doesn't like anything heavier than 52gr.  The heavier I go, the bigger the spread.  Even my AR 5.56 in 1 in 9 prefers 62s and 55s over the heavier stuff and even then the 55s do a better job accuracy wise.

krochus,

I doubt it.  Mine doesn't even group the 60 grn. Partitions well.  Different story with a 50 grn. BT however.

   Same here, myM700 doesnt like anything over 52g either. 1-14 seems to be the standard twist in most factory 22-250s.
