    1:9 twist 22.250

    mulling over a lh xbolt in 22.250 specs says they 1:9 so im guess that means it would handle 62,64,65 and 70grain projectiles just fine

    Should be right with 75’s I’d suspect.

    Check out Berger or JBM ballistics website for the stability calculator

    Shooting 75's in my 1:9 sweet as, smacked a magpie at 338m the other day. Shot the 70g speer okay as well. 68g bthp are okay but haven't really pursued them as yet, have tried to convince myself to just stick to one load which is the 75g eldm

    ive got 22 hornet for the bulk of my small stuff ie rabbits,turkey,hare etc
    so thinking 22.250 for goats mostly hence the 64s upwards to 75s

    @quadhunter260 have you got the 22 Hornet dirty or does it still have the plastic wrapping on it?
