Thread: What 22-250 in a 1-8 twist.

You can get 58gr vmaxs through to 108gr elds. Still projectiles for less than 50 cents each. I use mine for culling and have shot deer out over 600 yards easy enough so make the 6.5x55 and 25.06 redundant. Then use a smaller projectile for goats and peacocks if you wanted cheap and faster. I use 70gr speer TNT's downloaded for smaller things and at $40 for 100 can't complain.
Some projectiles punch well above their weight and kill extremely well, 105gr targex absolutely hammers deer.
If you wanted something a little different that does nearly the same job, get a 6mm arc in mini action.

Only thing is I have plenty of 22-250 brass and associated reloading gear.
Will use 25-06 for dedicated thermal and my 6.5x55 is part of my soul!
I have never owned anything in 6mm but never say never!
