Heavy 22s

[lancetkenyon]

I've shot plenty of prairie dogs with 88 gr ELDMs out of my 22-250 AI. Makes a mess of them. Current load with RL-23 and a 22" barrel is right at 3150 FPS.

A 77 gr TMK works really well also when looking for "splat factor". 77 gr TMKs are hard to find now, but Creedmoor Sports sells projectiles as "American Bullet Company". They list a .224 77 gr tipped match bullet from a "major bullet manufacturer" (I'm pretty positive it's Sierra). They have the same green tips and BC as the TMK.

I've shot plenty of coyotes with 90gr Berger VLD's and it puts the brakes on them hard.

We've been running 80.5 grain Berger's at 3450 and it's incredible. One of my favorite rifles to shoot.
