Shoot just load up what you have with cheap bullets and go spend a weekend shooting prairie dogs and coyotes.it sounds like a lot of work. my problem is that a 220 swift requires me to buy all new reloading supplies. I have about 500 new brass and 500 shot once brass in the 22-250. I have the reloading dies already also. I would just need bullets and powder. that is why I thought a 1 in 7 twist barrel upgrade on my 22-250 would be cheaper in the long run. I would put it on a 28" barrel which would help me on velocity a little. the Ackley would be the closest gun to using the brass I already have, not sure if I want to fire form all of that brass. that is a lot of rounds down the tube just to form a high number of brass. Im really going to have to think about this build. you guys have given me a lot of good ideas and advise and I appriciate it greatly. Im definately doing the project I just need to decide, fire form or just load and shoot. decisions decisions. thanks guys for your input.
You can burn a hell of a lot of powder in a weekend, fire form your brass, and have a great time while you are at it. On top of all of that it'l give you an excuse to make an extra hunting trip this year!
