[QUOTE="Aussie, post: 36973, member: 2447"] Derek , I worked up to a warm load of 36.8 gns of AR 2208 (Varget) with the 55 gn V Max which gave 3650 fps out of a 23.5 inch barrel . 38.2 gns gave 3812 fps with the 50 gn Nosler ballistic tip (maximum load). That was using Remington brass and primers . Win. 760 is another good powder in the .22/250 . 40.5 gns gave me 3630 fps with the 55 V Max . 40 gns with the 52 Sierra Match King was my most accurate load and gave about 3650 fps . Both are around maximum . Many 14 inch twist barrels won't shoot the 55gn polymer tipped bullets accurately . Have fun trimming those .22/250 cases if you decide to run warm loads ! Frankly I found the .22/250 was a real disappointment after owning a Swift for 20 years . Mine's long gone . [/QUOTE]
