    22-250 necks

    Just bought a 700 varmint. Thinking of getting Wilson or redding bushing FL dies. Dies anybody have some loaded lupua brass that you could measure outside neck diameter?

    Also does anyone have pet loads using adi powders? Haven't decided on projectiles yet but thinking 50 vmax or other explody goodies.

    Cheers team!

    .251 with a light neck turn to take off the high side only. Have been using the Berger 55gr flat base varmint 39gr CFE223 about 3600fps. Very dirty powder with I think graphite in it but no copper fouling. As always approach other peoples loads with caution. 1/2 moa in my Browning.

    The amount of powder escapes me and everything is packed for a move, but H4895 with Sierra 55g SBT about 3640fps, has worked a treat the past 12yrs.

    37.5gr AR2208 under 40gn V-max is insane in my Tikka. I'll let you work up your own seating depth for yours, but am confident I'd drop Reds with a shot in the eye at 100m
