A man after my own heart. I keep numerous thousands of varmint bullets in stock, and currently, its around 12-14 thousand on the shelf...

Was meant for partial humor. Heck. I used to cast lead bullets in a closed garage until I got nauseas. That was 45 years ago. In still... -

ShootnMatt- Looks like you're barking up the right tree so far. I'd go 8 twist, no reason not to even if you're shooting 40's-55's. Then...

I'd stick with the 22/250. It's tried and true and you've had positive experiences with it. Ammo is very accessible and reasonable...
