.22 Creedmoor loads with H. 88gr. ELD?

39-41gr RL 26
39-41gr H4350
7828SSC
H1000
39-41gr RL 23

As always, work up to your rifles specifics. Some loads can go heavier some not so much.
 
That 6.5 twist on the long 88 gr Eldm might struggle to stay together; especially if you run them full tilt. We are using 8 twists on 22 CM s and 22-250 AI s with 3200 fps and the 88 is working good.

If bullet blow ups occur consider a shorter bullet; like a 75 Eldm… know those will take 3550 fps out of an 8 twist. Long bearing surfaces on the heavier bullets cause lots of friction/heat.

Good Luck

Thanks! My 77gr. Sierra,s are providing good accuracy with Big Game powder. For Deer, I use Barnes 70gr. X bullet.
 
I should not have bought the 88,s. 70gr. Barnes for Deer, 77gr. Sierra for Wiley E.!
