Thread: advice on .222 loads

Gidday from over the fence (Wayne is my neighbour!!) - so you got that 222, nice.

222's will often go ok with 55 gn if you get them running reasonably fast (this speeds up the rate the projectile is spinning at). A Valmet (combination gun) I had many years ago shot them superbly with a 1:14 twist, it had a 26" barrel so they were running quite quick.

I've got plenty of powders you can try . . . .

Lol shit if it wasn’t hailing so bad you could have just shouted over the fence. Yeah might take up on the powder. Catch u up. My nephew is in starship pretty crook at the moment so I’m getting all the levers out and making videos for him....he is hunting mad. Hoping to have a lash with the .405 this weekend will keep u posted
