I have a 22-250 in the ultra varmint and was wondering what is their favorite PET LOAD for the Ultra or the Handi. THANKS!!!

Welcome to GBO!! My fluted Ultra Varmint shoots the 50gr Vmax and a start load of H4895 inside an inch. ;)

I used data right from Hodgdon, hotter loads didn't shoot as well, but that just means I need to experiment with seating depth, those were loaded into the lands at 2.484", recommended COL is 2.350", so I just need to adjust it a little to see how it responds to more powder. WLR primers and Win brass.

IMR-4895 and 4064 with a 50 gr. Nosler BT bullet are hard to beat in a 22-250!!!!!!
